PRESS
Marcel Tomàs squanders talent, sympathy, freshness and boldness, dominates the gesture, the tempo of the gag and puts the audience in his pocket since he made his appearance on stage. Thomas is the classic clown who has lost his red nose and big shoes but retains his naivete, mischief, spontaneity, ability to play and improvise, his naughty spirit and even hooligan at times, his need to communicate and connect with the public, that way of looking that, rather than seeing us, what it seeks is for us to look at it, and for whom laughter is not an end but a means. In Hotot there are absurd, improbable, absurd situations, but in any case it tells above all how it is told, how the situation has been created and how it is resolved, above what is told. The basis of humor is how and not what. And there, Marcel Tomàs reaches an outstanding level. His characters feed on enthusiasm, never giving up on discouragement even if everything goes wrong. They do not look for problems, but they are constantly found. And Marcel Tomàs is decidedly brilliant, absolutely precise in his gesture and in the measure of the times, funny and charming in his direct relationship with the public.

“Marcel Tomàs invents situations with a single gesture. Hotot includes one of the craziest road movies I’ve ever seen. Humor with overflowing talent. Mercè Sibina. Journalist.
“A montage steeped in humor, talent and a prodigious mastery of the body of the classics of the genre” Dani Chicano. Journalist.
Histrionic, agile, highly entertaining in a total interpretive delivery.
Assumpta Pérez. Journalist.
Deployment of all his knowledge in the field of humor and extraordinary mastery of the stage. A humor that with its movements, gestures and smiles reaches extraordinary levels. When he wants he can be Tati or de Funes, but in between also Chaplin. The mixture of the 3 geniuses join Marcel Tomàs. They have served as his inspiration and in the faith that he has learned the lesson, step by step he has gone up to a point that amazes us. Well Marcel !!! Pere García. Theatrical chronicler and journalist of the Being.
Is it worth it. I saw her yesterday, Tomàs is more perfect every day.
