Information

Pedro Muñoz Seca wrote over 300 works, but he is primarily known for La Venganza de Don Mendo, a comedy that rests on two great traditions: verse theater and parody. La Venganza de Don Mendo employs all theatrical tricks, including archetypal characters, anachronisms, contemporary references, wordplay, visual gags, neologisms, cheap jokes that, when well delivered, seem sublime, misunderstandings, entrances and exits typical of farce, songs, dances, acrobatics, fights... It has everything, and, most importantly, it is all conveniently balanced to keep us entertained for a couple of hours without that unbearable need to check our phones.

We perform La Venganza de Don Mendo because we want the audience to laugh as much as we have laughed while preparing it. Taking a few liberties that make it a fiercely contemporary work. With unconventional scenography, a wardrobe that matches the scenography, an adaptation that gives it a current stage rhythm, an update of jokes that have lost their references, and a touch of Tricicle, the Muñoz Seca of gestural theater.
