Today we perform in Almagro's Teatro Principal at 17h inside the programming of Almagro's CUAL Festival.
What is our play about?
Los Fusilados (Executed) tells the story of a singular group of republican soldiers on guard who, during a night in the Spanish Civil War's aftermath, find the chance to deflect when they have to take care of a truck cargo loaded with enormous paintings leading towards the frontier.
Temptation knocks at the door, they only need to make one of those big canvases disappear and occupy its place before dawn to make their wish come true, an escape to such desperation and such nonsense of a war that is already lost. There's full moon, no sound is heard. Finally, hopelessness and treason will meet under a painting's shadow.
Thanks very much to all the audience who came to watch us and all our new friends we have met during the festival. A special mention deserves Adrián Portillo for having borne the weight of the play and his character (Roman) in his first representation with us. Congratulations mate!
