The life of Miguel Mihura (1905-1977) was filled with disappointments, unrequited loves, failures, and the occasional success that came almost at the end of his days. One success, that of Three Top Hats, came when he managed to premiere his great work two decades after having written it. This is the story of that achievement, somewhat bitter. The story of a life split in half, that of Miguel and that of Mihura, which always remained linked to the birth of his first text.

Mihura, the Last Comedian is a clear tribute to comedians and, above all, to Miguel Mihura. But who was the author of one of the canonical works of Spanish theater in the 20th century? What do we know about him? How do today's authors resemble him? Adrián Perea answers these questions through a comedy of early talent. Like Tom Stoppard, the author of this text constructs a kind of Shakespeare In Love of absurd humor. Laughter, love, cabaret, and unfulfilled dreams. Mihura, the Last Comedian addresses the theme of writing as a form of resistance and helps us better understand the old craft of those who make us laugh. A sentimental biography where life, fiction, and autofiction come together.
