The actor José Sacristán comes to the Teatro Bellas Artes in Madrid with the play Señora de rojo sobre fondo gris, by Miguel Delibes, from 3 November to 22 January next year.
The excellent actor and storyteller José Sacristán brings to the stage this monologue by the Valladolid writer Miguel Delibes, in which he tells the story of his life with his wife, Ángeles de Castro. A portrait of the personality of the woman who was everything to him and, above all, a description of the process of the illness that led to his unexpected death at the age of 48.
The work recounts the life of a painter with many years in the trade who has been in a creative crisis for some time. Since the unexpected death of his wife, who meant everything to him, he has hardly been able to paint again. It is the summer and autumn of 1975. Their eldest daughter is in prison for her political activities, and it is at this time that the first symptoms of her mother’s illness appear, which the daughter will experience from inside the prison. It is another permanent memory in her father’s life, which she now relives. Tickets can be purchased at this link.
