Teatre Principal presents La corte de Faraón, one of Vicente Lleó's most famous works. This piece, defined as a biblical operetta, stands out for its ability to mix zarzuela with elements of vaudeville and cuplé, offering a show full of double entendres and satirical songs that remain entirely relevant today.
The production arriving at the Sala Gran bears the hallmark of Emilio Sagi in stage direction and Carlos Aragón in musical direction. It is a visually stunning proposal thanks to Daniel Bianco's colorful set design and Gabriela Salaverri's detailed costumes, recreating an imaginary and fun Egypt.
