📖 Making peace with war

Subtitled "Tengamos la guerra en paz", the show imagines what happens when the enemy finally answers the phone using the very same absurd, direct, and hilarious tone. Rather than focusing specifically on the Spanish Civil War, the text addresses an enduring and universal conflict: human discord, a reality as ancient as it is contemporary.

The piece delivers a sharp anti-war critique through comic theater with a distinct social undercurrent. Amid witty dialogues and surreal moments, the production underscores the absolute necessity of dialogue, reminding audiences that communication remains crucial, even with the adversary.

🎭 Creative team and staging

The performance is written and performed by Eduardo Herrera Baena (Edu Herrera). Stage direction is handled by Escenaviva, with sound design created by E.H.H.Músico, coming together to offer a sharp satire that confronts polarization through comedy.

✨ A witty call for dialogue and peace through laughter at Teatro Campos Elíseos.
