Pau Portabella is an artist specialized in multidisciplinary scenic creation. He works in circus, theatre, and dance, as well as in the training of stage artists.
He studied at El Timbal theatre school (Barcelona) and at the Rogelio Rivel (Barcelona) and Le Lido (Toulouse) circus schools.
He is the co-creator of the company Fet a mà with Marta Torrents, with whom he created the shows Swap! and Cru, touring internationally and winning several awards.
Currently, apart from directing and performing with his own circus-theatre company Impulsos, he works in direction and dramaturgy with national and international companies such as Kaaos Kaamos, Haa Collective, Cia. Dukto, Nuua Company, and Maitane Sarralde Cía.
The research lines of Pau’s work point towards new circus dramaturgies that aim to break conventional structures in order to discover and develop new scenic languages.
