📖 A comic and contemporary look at the classics

This play offers a dynamic overview of nearly two centuries of history, bringing to the stage fundamental questions of the Spanish Golden Age that remain fully relevant in contemporary times.

Using a distinctive visual and aesthetic language, a troupe of players brings diverse characters and tales to life. The production seasons classical verses with physical theatre, clowning, circus skills, humor, and live musical accompaniment.

The performance tackles universal dilemmas that still resonate today, including armed conflicts, the historical ostracism faced by women, and the challenge of surviving in a world driven by personal ambition.

🎭 Stage collaboration at Lugaritz

The production brings together the artistic efforts of companies La escalera de tijera and Z teatro, blending their expressive tools to offer an accessible and thought-provoking theatrical experience.

Hosted at the Sala Imanol Larzabal in Lugaritz cultural centre, this performance forms an integral highlight of the Literaktum 2026 cultural programme in Donostia / San Sebastián.

✨ A fresh blend of classic theatre, clowning, and circus that links history with today.
