The festival's final stretch brings some of the most anticipated performances. Notably, the revival of El Lazarillo de Tormes, in Fernando Fernán Gómez's adaptation for a monologue performed by Rafael Álvarez, El Brujo. New creations from the Spanish National Dance Company of the Community of Madrid and the company Losdedae, directed by Chevi Muraday, will also be presented.
The stage activity includes theater, dance, circus, and music. The circus spectacle Quixote, by Truca Circus and the Orquesta Ciudad de Alcalá, merges classical music and circus arts. The musical proposal Cotidiáfonos clásicos by Bufa&Sons will transform everyday objects into instruments.
Other events include Chusma, by Goutas Teatro & Rana Teatro, a piece of visual theater and acrobatics; and Habla, Numancia, by Los Sueños de Fausto, reflecting on memory and resistance.
Dance will take center stage with naScencia, by the Spanish National Dance Company of the Community of Madrid, choreographed by Mónica Fernández, and De Oro, by Losdedae, which revisits iconic characters from Golden Age theater from a critical perspective on identity and diversity.
The local program features Yo quisiera ser poeta, by Evogía, championing the figure of playwright Marcela de San Félix. Additionally, Patrañas cervantinas by Quasiclasics and Tuyo Cid by Malaje Sólo will be presented, reviving popular theater traditions and the spirit of the minstrels.
The streets of the historic center will become a stage with the itinerant artistic intervention Lluvia de palabras by Visitants Escènica, sharing texts from the Golden Age.
