The Municipal Theater of Torrevieja is getting ready to receive “La Función Que Sale Mal”, the international hit comedy that has made more than 8 million spectators laugh around the world. Winner of the prestigious Olivier Award for Best Comedy in 2015, this hilarious play mixes the best of Monty Python-style absurdist humor with a Sherlock Holmes-worthy tangle. The event will take place on May 24 at 8:00 pm.
Since its premiere in London’s West End in 2012, this production has conquered the stages of more than 30 countries and five continents, becoming the highest-grossing comedy on Broadway for two consecutive seasons. In Spain, its success is unstoppable: with more than 1,000 performances and 450,000 spectators, the play continues to triumph in its sixth season… and now it’s Torrevieja’s turn!
A play where everything that can go wrong… goes wrong!
“La Función Que Sale Mal” introduces us to an amateur theater group that premieres their mystery play, but what should be a conventional performance turns into a full-blown disaster. From technical glitches and collapsing sets to actors forgetting their lines or getting caught in stage trap doors, every minute is filled with chaos and laughter. Despite all the unforeseen events, the characters struggle to keep going, generating a comedy of entanglements that leaves no one indifferent.
Its intelligent humor, the precision of its visual gags and the impeccable work of the actors have made this production acclaimed by critics and audiences. Now, the public of Torrevieja has the unique opportunity to enjoy it live, in an evening of guaranteed laughter and unforgettable moments.
Tickets go on sale from Tuesday, March 4 at 12:00 noon at the Municipal Theater box office and on the website www.culturatorrevieja.com. Don’t miss the opportunity to experience live the funniest comedy of the year!
LFQSM will be another proposal of Torrevieja Culture, this time of humor, for the month of May and a cultural program that is already full of events of all kinds and for all audiences: it will be an unforgettable start of summer for our city!
