"The 22nd edition of the 'Zacatecas 2025 International Street Theater Festival' delighted attendees with a dreamlike show that transformed the sky into a stage of aerial bicycles with the play 'Pedalling towards the sky', by the Belgian company Theater Tol. Footage filmed on Monday shows the performance at Plaza de Armas in Zacatecas, where lights, projections, and live music captivated spectators. Claudia Bustillos, festival attendee, said it is a "first-class" show that, being outdoors, allows people passing by to approach and watch the play, giving them "access to culture in other ways." "I liked it a lot, it even moved me. What I liked the most was the live instrument performance. There is a violinist, a trumpeter and singers," she added. As part of the festival activities, the Zacatecas audience also enjoyed the Alternative Art Group 'El Escarabajo', which presented the show 'Saltimbanxs', a proposal that combines physical theater with humor and live music. "The play is precisely about the demands of art, but also about demands in other worlds, like science and education, where being strict is fully normalized, but it also greatly affects the body and the soul. So we propose that art must be made with love, it must be made with great respect, and that is the message of the play," said Carlos Alejandro, actor of the company. He explained that over several years, 'El Escarabajo' has presented various plays at the festival and emphasised that such events, highlighting street art, help maintain closer contact between artists and the audience. "I love being close to the audience because that way we make a real energy connection, and I feel that sometimes in conventional theater we are very separated, but in street theater we can meet anyone and any kind of audience is welcome," he added. The Zacatecas International Street Theater Festival runs from October 11 to 18 in streets, alleys, and plazas across the state, featuring 19 national and international companies. Artists from other countries come from Argentina, Belgium, Chile, Spain, the United States, and Venezuela. The festival has established itself as a national and international cultural reference, with free performances and programming focused on street arts that transform the city into a living stage, integrating the audience into the experience."
