Last year from the Department of Oral Expression and with the coordination of Esther Pallejà, we joined the project ofUrban Confessional and with some of the students from the school we started practicing the Free Listening. This is a project started a few years ago by a group of actors from Los Angeles, determined to propose something different. Each week they stood in the streets of LA with signs that read "FREE LISTENING" opening to listen to anyone who needed to laugh, cry, shout or just chat.
This community has grown over time to include people from 6 different continents. Barcelona i Eolia is now part of this network of people who have found in the exercise of opening their hearts and ears to other unknown people a vital and enriching experience.
Here you can see which was our first Free Listening experience.
This year, we want to take to the streets again willing to listen, and we want to grow this project, because we believe deeply in the need we all have to be seen, heard and accepted.
La next call of FREE LISTENING it will be Saturday 7 in November. People who want to participate must send an email to estherpalleja@gmail.com
And we are pleased to share too
