A Zarzuela Night is primarily a LYRICAL RECITAL of ZARZUELI repertoire but with some peculiarities.

We have not limited ourselves, as is usually done, to presenting a succession of romances and duets representative of our lyrical genre. Instead, all the songs unfold driven by a theatrical plot of a comic nature , in which the audience takes an active part at all times.

In this way, the spectator will be able to enjoy lyrical pieces in RIGOROUS LIVE and accompanied by a master pianist, while having fun watching and "acting" in a comedy.

These are two stage scenes, in which, with costumes appropriate to each one, the first will portray the customs and traditions of provincial areas and the second will be based on the famous traditional Zarzuelas of Madrid, the chulapos and chulapas, which, of course, could not be missing.

To illustrate these two portraits, excerpts from well-known Zarzuelas such as El Huésped del Sevillano, La Rosa del Azafrán, La Tabernera del Puerto, La Verbena de la Paloma, La Revoltosa, Agua, azucarillos y aguardiente, La del Manojo de Rosas, etc... will be staged ...

All of this is enhanced by the presenter's engaging explanations of the historical and cultural aspects of each era, and the actors' recitation of short excerpts from the scripts, which further illustrate what the viewer is witnessing.
