Malvivir in first person tells the secret life of the rogue Elena de Paz, a free-spirited, rebellious, thieving, ingenious, deceitful woman on the run who defies all the conventions of her time and pays the price for her freedom. Malvivir is a journey into the dark side of the Golden Age; a journey through the different social classes, milieux and characters of a turbulent and fascinating era.
Malvivir is also the story of the heart-breaking and stormy love between Elena and Montúfar; two miserable rogues in Spain at a time of splendour and famine, of dream and deceit, of faith and witchcraft, of hope and death. A tragicomic vision of the 17th century, a reflection on freedom and survival and a recovery of female picaresque Baroque literature. And on stage two performers with the challenge of taking on all the characters, and the continuous presence of a rabel player who plays and sings live to accompany the action and create the different spaces and atmospheres.
Note: the function on April 1 will be adapted for people with visual disabilities.
