Dear friends,
Barcelona’s Jocular Theatre is back with its latest outrageous production, “The Nature and Purpose of the Universe”. You remember Jocular, don’t you? The same irreverent English-language group that brought you “Picasso at the Lapin Agile”, “All In The Timing” and “The Marriage of Bette & Boo”. Anyway, this year’s offering promises to be just as much fun and just as sharp.
Your appetizer at this jocular night of theatre, “The Actor’s Nightmare”, is a hilarious spoof detailing the plight of a stranger who is suddenly pushed on stage to replace an ailing actor. Your main course, “The Nature and Purpose of the Universe”, is a dark comedy homage to the Book of Job in the Bible that will assault your sensibilities quickly and brutally, while appealing to a sick sense of humor that you almost wish you didn’t possess. Both pieces are by the American playwright Christopher Durang.
Thursday, 12 June at 21:00 / 7 euros (save 3 euros!)
