There is an amazing amount of theatre plays going on in Buenos Aires. I was able to stop for a moment and catch “Agosto. Condado Osage” at the Lola Membrives theatre. I was a bit skeptical as the play lasts around 3 hours but it was absolutely brilliant! A skewed family where the father is an alcoholic, the mother is constantly doped up on pills, the three daughters all hide various secrets and the grandchild has a serious joint addiction. Time flies by as the story unfolds, at times darkly humorous, at others side-splitting hilarious.

Urtain
Animalario is a theatre company based in Madrid, so all their plays are in Spanish. Urtain was a mediocre boxer towards the later years of Franco’s regime. Due to many events that were greatly followed and talked about, Urtain managed to achieve great fame and became the image of Spain. After many years of fighting his greatest battles with himself, he commited suicide fours days before the beginning of the Barcelona Olympics. A tragic figure, Animalario brings Urtain to life once again, through Roberto Álamo. This is a journey through a Spain marked by blood, politics, lies and deceit, fame and destruction. It is also a journey through the tortured and chaotic mind of Urtain.
Eonnagata
I’m not much of a dance person, I much prefer theatre and expositions of all kinds but I was drawn to Eonnagata. During the past 4 days and forming part of the annual, summer Grec Festival, this spectacular production could be seen at the Teatreonnagatae Nacional de Catalunya (TNC).
