Sold out!
Next Sunday, January 26, at 18:30 pm, the Municipal Theater of Torrevieja will host the premiere of Quelis, a musical based on the true story of four young friends who lived intensely their youth in Torrevieja.
This original play, written by Carlos R. González and with music by Jorge Cruz Toledo, explores the intimate world of four girls who face the adventures, dilemmas and emotions of adolescence in the nineties, when social networks did not exist and love was experienced face to face.
The protagonists of Quelis are four inseparable friends: Susana, Reme, Clares and María. In a town where “not even trains pass” and days seem the same, the girls support each other, argue, make up, go out and drink together. Their friendship becomes their refuge as they try to understand love and themselves, at a time when everything seems about to change.
Quelis combines acting, music and dance to transport the audience to the youth of Torrevieja at the end of the last century, a time when every shared moment was genuine. The play features 22 original songs that represent the emotions and experiences of the characters, composed by Jorge Cruz Toledo and with lyrics by Carlos R. González, who is also the son of one of the original “Quelis”, bringing an authentic and personal perspective to the story.
This emotional journey will feature a talented cast that includes Lucía Fontanilla, Alba Tesías, Sofía Pozo, Sofía Tavares, Coque Sánchez and Aitzol Ibarloza, in addition to the original “Quelis”, who will play their own characters: Susana González, Reme Martínez, María José Clares and María Fructuoso.
It should also be noted that Quelis swept the board at the First National Musical Theater Contest: “Última Estación: Gran Vía”, winning the Best Stage Direction Award for Carlos R. González, Best Female Voice Award for Sofía Pozo, Best Leading Actress Award for Sofía Tavares, Best Costume Design Award for Andrés Pérez and Second Prize.
With a mix of nostalgia, humor and sentiment, Quelis promises to be a journey into the memories of a generation and a celebration of friendship at its purest.
