First step: the staging "7 x 7"


“7x7” is a compilation of seven short pieces by Spanish authors, from the veteran José Sanchís Sinisterra, to the beginner Lola Manzanares, including as big authors as Jaime Pujol, Ignacio del Moral or Jose Luis Alonso de Santos. The seven pieces are characterized by their humoristic, surreal and, most of all, contemporary tone. .
