In Despierta, the author and actress lays herself bare emotionally to narrate different stages of her life, from her childhood to the present day. With a sincere and humorous story, the actress and playwright shares with the audience. “In my house there were two types of education: the one my brother received and the one we received”, Rayo explains in the show. She explains that she would have liked to have been a man when she was a child. She would have liked to be a man to be able to be free like men, to be able to do what she wanted. She has gone through therapies, eating disorders, crying and searches to tackle human stupidity. She attacks hypocrisy, double standards and feels that the liberation of women is the liberation of humanity.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Teatro Espa\u00f1ol in Madrid presents the actress Ana Rayo with her monologue Despierta under the direction of Natalia Men\u00e9ndez.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":58598,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"jnews_override_counter":[],"jnews_post_split":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[176],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-74562","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-leisure"],"yoast_head":"\n
