The programming of the mov-s Madrid 2010









The Price Circus Theatre is many spaces rolled into one. An established circus that refuses to limit itself to any one artistic genre: performing arts, concerts, dance, and contemporary and traditional circus, as well as workshops, exhibitions and screenings. Its spaces readily adapt themselves to the use in question. Thanks to this flexibility, its spaces can seat between 100 and 2300 people.
The Price Circus Theatre is right in the centre of Madrid, in Ronda de Atocha. It forms part of the extension of the Prado-Recoletos cultural thoroughfare, along with the nearby Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía and La Casa Encendida.
Ronda de Atocha, 35- 28013 Madrid

Housed in one of the key sites of industrial architecture in Madrid from the turn of the 20th century, Matadero Madrid has set itself up as the city’s leading centre for contemporary creation and one of the outstanding international spaces for creation today.
The performing arts, visual arts, design, music, dance, architecture, city planning, landscaping, fashion, literature, thought and film make up Matadero Madrid’s areas of activity, through which it aims to strengthen a comprehensive and multidisciplinary focus. Its activities range from research and training to production and promotion.
Matadero Madrid is backed by Madrid City Council through the Arts Area, in collaboration with other public and private organisations.

La Casa Encendida is a social and cultural centre run by Obra Social Caja Madrid. This dynamic space is open to all audiences and brings together some of the most avant-garde artistic expressions, along with educational, thought-provoking activities and debates. La Casa Encendida was set up as a meeting point for people attracted by some of the proposals from its four areas of action: solidarity, environment, culture and education. Its crosscutting approach is mutually rewarding for different audiences.

The Fernán Gómez Theatre and Art Centre (former Centro Cultural de la Villa) is located in the Plaza de Colón, right in the very centre of Madrid below the Jardines del Descubrimiento. It boasts three different spaces suitable for all kinds of different artistic and cultural activities. It forms part of the city’s chief art circuit and lies within the network of leading art galleries. It forms part of the Prado-Recoletos cultural thoroughfare, together with the Biblioteca Nacional, Museo del Prado, Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Museo Thyssen, Museo Arqueológico and Palacio de Congresos.
The spaces
The Sala Guirau can seat 689 people and put on medium- and large-scale drama, dance and music cycles, as well as family shows. Its triangular stage has a 22-m proscenium arch, measures 10 m from cyclorama to proscenium arch, and is 5 m high at the proscenium arch and 4.85 m inside.
The Sala II has two spaces: a diaphanous one for theatre for babies, which can seat approximately 70, and another with an Italian-style stage, which can seat 170. The stage dimensions are: mouth, 9.5 m; proscenium arch, 4.5 m; 2.42 m high at the proscenium arch; and 3.20 m high in the space.
It also features a 2000-m2 exhibition space for different temporary exhibits, covering mainly historical and popular subjects, although in recent years there has been more focus on the performing arts. Its huge floorspace offers a wide range of different possibilities for designing new spaces to meet the needs for setting up different exhibitions. The space is often divided up, with sometimes three different exhibitions on simultaneously.
