The macro-show Glam canalla. Nits a Nord, offered at the Parc de l'Estació del Nord in the evening, closes with a musical on a timely theme. This show of shows will fill the space with bold, fun, irreverent artists who just want you to enjoy yourself.

In Els Pastorets de la Mercè, Carolina and Gerard are the children of shepherds. With music and songs, we learn that their families have insisted that country life holds no future and they must head to the city to make their fortune. But once there, they soon realise that the big opportunities they expected are nothing but a pipe dream, and the reality is harsh and complex. Now night has fallen and they have no transport, so they decide to embark on a musical journey through the city’s neighbourhoods in search of a decent, affordable place to live. If they find one, maybe they can stay in Barcelona and build a life. Along the way, they encounter emblematic monuments, iconic figures and absurd, comical situations... but will find a home in the end? A sharply topical and humorous critique in the night-time programme at Parc de l'Estació del Nord.
