El Conde de Torrefiel is a Barcelona-based project, founded in 2010 and headed by Tanya Beyeler (Switzerland, 1980) and Pablo Gisbert (Spain, 1982). The two studied Theatre and Philosophy and are also members of the Spanish La Veronal dance company. Their creations seek a visual and textual aesthetic where theatre, choreography, literature and visual arts coexist. Their starting point is a synchronic analysis of the present, an interrogation as a being living in the immediate present, about the possibilities of our time.

Thanks to the good reception by audience and critics, the company is beginning to gain fame outside Spain with performances in Brazil (TEMPO Festival of Rio de Janeiro), France (Festival Choreographic Encounters of Seine-Saint-Denis and Human too human CDN Montpellier), at Danzalborde Festival in Chile, El Chopo Museum in Mexico, GIFT Festival Gateshead, Kunstenfestivaldesarts Brussels and Steirische Herbst Festival in Graz.
