The city’s cultural agenda will be full over the next few days with great productions such as “La Gramática” with María Adánez and José Troncoso, “El Humor de mi vida” with Paz Padilla, and concerts by Brothers in Band, “Música Americana” by the OST and “La Passió de Crist” by the UMT.
Grammar: on language and society
This Thursday, March 27, as part of the closing of the V National Theatre Competition, “Raúl Ferrández”, will premiere at the Municipal Theatre of Torrevieja at 20:00 pm the play “La Gramática”, written and directed by Ernesto Caballero. It is a play that reflects with humor and intelligence about the limits of language and its impact on our society, with a first class cast headed by María Adánez and José Troncoso.
In La Gramática, a cleaning worker at the Royal Spanish Academy suffers an unexpected accident that turns her, without looking for it, into a scholar of language and grammar. Her sudden mastery of syntactic correctness and her obsession with language begin to affect her daily life, to the point that a prestigious neuroscientist offers to “deprogram” her. Through this premise, the play raises profound questions: Can linguistic knowledge marginalize a person, and is it possible to unlearn what has never been learned?
The play features the stellar presence of María Adánez, one of the most outstanding actresses on the Spanish stage, with a prolific career in theater, film and television. Known for her work in iconic comedies such as Aquí no hay quien viva and La que se avecina, Adánez has demonstrated her versatility in theatrical productions such as El eunuco and Divinas palabras.
At his side, José Troncoso, actor and director with a solid career in theater and recognized for his talent in directing and dramaturgy. He has participated in projects of great impact such as Con lo bien que estábamos (Ferretería Esteban) and Lo nunca visto, as well as being one of the key figures in the renewal of the contemporary Spanish stage.
With La Gramática, Ernesto Caballero brings to the stage a sharp and vibrant play that invites us to reflect on the use and abuse of language in our society, through an intelligent, funny and witty staging.
A tribute to Dire Straits
Dire Straits is one of the most iconic bands in the history of modern music, and his legacy lives on thanks to Brothers in Band, the largest international tribute show to the legendary British formation and arriving at the International Auditorium of Torrevieja this Friday, March 28 at 20:30. Considered the best Dire Straits tribute band, Brothers in Band has taken its incredible musical recreation to stages all over Europe, with tours in Spain, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Germany, France, Portugal, Belgium, Andorra and Luxembourg.
This tribute, about to sell out, is distinguished by its fidelity to the different stages of Dire Straits, with a staging that transports the audience on a real journey through time. In their show “The Very Best of Dire Straits”, Brothers in Band reviews the group’s greatest hits, from the clean sound of Down to the Waterline to anthems such as Money for Nothing, Sultans of Swing, Telegraph Road, Romeo & Juliet, Tunnel of Love or Lady Writer, in a show that lasts more than two hours.
One of the key elements of the show is Angelo Fumarola, who embodies Mark Knopfler’s voice and style with astonishing precision. His posture, gestures and the way he interprets each note manage to revive the essence of the legendary Dire Straits leader. At his side, a group of top-notch musicians masterfully reproduce the musical richness of the British band, offering an experience that thrills both longtime fans and new generations.
With an impeccable production and a sound that keeps the essence of Dire Straits intact, Brothers in Band offers a unique show that no music lover can miss.

Paz Padilla’s comedy
A show that has already sold out is the one that Paz Padilla will present on Saturday 29, but at the Municipal Theater at 8:30 p.m.In this touching and reflective work entitled “The humor of my life”, the artist invites us on an emotional journey through her own story of love, loss and overcoming. From the first love of her adolescence to the most difficult moments of saying goodbye, the actress and humorist narrates with courage and sensitivity how she found in humor the key to face life and death.
The humor of my life is a celebration of what it means to live fully, embracing both joys and sorrows, and learning to find laughter even in the darkest moments. A unique experience that reminds us that life is full of nuances and that humor is a great companion every step of the way; a road full of discoveries, mistakes, sorrow and humor, lots of humor. Life is full of all that, why should we stay only with the sad?
An intimate, inspiring and deeply human show that will not leave you indifferent.
