Fundación Repsol and the Theater Company of Blanca Marsillach join for the ninth year in a row to bring their theater project adapted for people with intellectual disabilities to five Spanish cities.

The work chosen for this edition, Historias de un día cualquiera, premieres in Cartagena on February 7, in the Culture Room of the Fundación Caja Mediterráneo at 11:00 in the morning.

This piece, which will be on tour in Spain from February to June 2018, will also visit Cartagena in four other cities: A Coruña, Bilbao, Tarragona and Madrid.

In A Coruña and Madrid, Repsol Volunteers will participate in the event, accompanying the public and directing the participatory workshops.

This is the fourth year that actors with and without disabilities share the tables: Adela Estévez and Miriam Fernández, two actresses with disabilities, rejoin the actor and director Xabier Olza in this project.

As on previous occasions, the cast will perform a theatrical piece to give way, once finished, to the participation of the audience: the attendees have the opportunity to go on stage to improvise the funniest scenes of the work.

Stories of any day of Pedro Muñoz Seca are small comic pieces with simple plot structures in which the picaresque plays a main role: Mosquito and Purgatory, Jealousy and Lying in time.

Mosquito and Purgatory deals with two miscreants of little tour and even less intellect who believe they have found the magic formula through which they will earn an easy money and will thus be able to enjoy their great fondness for bullfighting.

Carrying a barrel of wine with which they are placed at the entrance of the arena, they begin a sale in which only two customers will drink all the spirituous liquid.

The only circumstance that is somewhat adverse and ruinous to their interests is that these two generous clients are themselves.

Jealousy for its part, poses a bizarre situation as a couple.

Miguel's reproaches and jealousy lead Elvira to make the decision to divorce her husband, but Antonio, the lawyer of both, will find the secret formula to redirect this particular relationship.

Lying on time is the last of the three works that give shape to Stories of any day.

Dolores, a young and determined girl, is fed up with Vicente, trickster galán with whom she has been in a relationship for more than twenty months.

And is that if something takes him out of their boxes are the recurring lies Miguel to always be late for their appointments.

But, alas, those lies are wrapped in hilarious and bizarre stories that, without her wanting it, make Dolores laugh and grant her forgiveness to Vicente.

But this time it's going to be different.

The collaboration of Fundación Repsol and Varela Producciones began in 2010 with the first adapted theater program in which the play The Kingdom of the Earth, by Tennessee Williams, was presented.

Since then, more than 10,000 people have benefited from this theater project adapted for people with different abilities, which encourages the integration of this group through culture.

In 2014 it was decided to go one step further and it was premiered at the La Latina Theater. I'm getting off on the next one, and you?

with a cast of actors with and without disabilities, and in September 2015 they made a season at the Fernán Gómez Theater

REPSOL FOUNDATION:

For Fundación Repsol, contributing to the social integration of people with disabilities is one of the objectives in which it is most committed and, for this, it works on initiatives that cover education, culture and sports, promoting inclusive activities that lead to the total integration of this group in a framework of equal opportunities.

For Fundación Repsol, culture is a key element for inclusion and therefore, in addition to this theater program, it also develops other initiatives such as literary workshops, artistic training for people with intellectual disabilities and the More culture, More inclusion project whose objective is that people with disabilities participate in the culture, not only as spectators, but also as creators and professionals.
