GRUPO TROTEATEATRO
performs HABÍA UNA VEZ (in Spanish)
on Friday, November 7 at 7:30 pm at the Shannon Center.
HABIA UNA VEZ is a collective creation that explores memory and
its future. Children and the “third world” have a lot in common
in a world of paternalistic abuses. It’s a fun and cruel show,
almost an Ubuesque Farse, in which fairies and witches cross
paths and fairy tales mix and reach our present time.
