Project Description

Dagoll Dagom is a leading theatre company in Catalonia, with a 50-year trajectory that has left an indelible mark on Catalan musical theatre. Founded in 1974, the company has been led by Joan Lluís Bozzo, Anna Rosa Cisquella, and Miquel Periel. Over the years, its productions have captivated generations and contributed to shaping the theatrical culture of the Catalan audience.

In five decades of history, Dagoll Dagom has premiered 34 productions, including Nit de Sant Joan (1981), Glups!! (1983), El Mikado (1986), Mar i Cel (1988), Flor de Nit (1992), Els Pirates (1997), Cop de Rock (2011) and L’Alegria que passa (2023).

The company’s most iconic production is, without a doubt, Mar i Cel, considered the greatest musical in Catalonia. Based on the text by Àngel Guimerà, with music by Albert Guinovart and libretto by Xavier Bru de Sala, this production has been staged four times by Dagoll Dagom: 1988, 2004, 2014, and finally 2024, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the company and the centenary of Guimerà’s death. This latest production marks the final chapter in Dagoll Dagom’s journey, closing a legacy of success. Mar i Cel has been seen by over 1.5 million spectators, making it a true cultural phenomenon.

Beyond theatre, Dagoll Dagom has also made a significant impact on television, producing successful comedy series for Televisió de Catalunya, such as Oh, Europa! (1993), Oh, Espanya! (1996), La memòria dels Cargols (1999), Psico-Express (2001), and La Sagrada Família (2009-2011).

Throughout its history, the company has received numerous awards and recognitions, including the Critics’ Award for Best Musical Production (1992), the National Performing Arts Award (1994), the Honorary Award from the Jaume I Foundation (1995), the Creu de Sant Jordi from the Government of Catalonia (1996), and multiple SGAE Max Awards for Best Musical Production (1998, 2002, and 2006).
