Summary/Abstract: A conversation with the Spanish Agrupación Señor Serrano led by theater studies students from the Jagiellonian University during the 21st Theater Confrontations in Lublin. The point of departure was two of the group’s plays performed during the festival: Birdie and The House in Asia. The students posed questions concerning the media the artists use, mainly the combination of video and toy figurines animated live on stage. The members of Agrupación Señor Serrano speak of how they choose topics for their plays. They also raise issues of the collective organization of team work in a creative and economic sense, the way the theater operates without a permanent headquarters, and the performance of the plays mainly in the festival circuit and in international residency programs.
