UN ENSAYO DESASTROSO - A play in Spanish for teenagersInternational Theatre Festival
BOOK NOW ![]() * Disabled seating available please call Box Office on 01205 363108 |
In a "small-town" theatre in Spain, the final rehearsal is falling apart. The lead actress, Verónica is as dramatic offstage as she is on, and is threatening to quit. Meanwhile, Cassy, the super-keen stage manager, is trying to keep the chaos under control… though she secretly dreams of taking the lead role. To make matters worse, the other members of the Spanish cast are missing so Cassy enlists the help of some of the students, who are encouraged to play all the missing characters, deliver lines, and even make sound effects. What follows is a wildly funny rehearsal full of flubbed lines, forgotten props, theatrical meltdowns, and moments of unexpected brilliance.
Will Verónica finally share the spotlight? Will Cassy get her big moment? And can the students actually save the show?
