In Divinas palabras Atalaya revisits what is considered by many literary critics to be the most sublime drama written in Spanish in the 20th century.
The central theme is avarice, lust and death, which Valle Inclan described like no one else. The play reveals with great cruelty, although the tone is grotesque, the human misery embodied in the family of a village sacristan, which can be easily extrapolated to the reality around us. The author uses poetic and symbolic language, and his characters are poetic representatives of moral and social decadence.
This is Atalaya’s thirtieth production, with which the company returns to one of its aesthetic models with a contemporary tone full of energy, imagery, chants and choral dramatisation.
Atalaya, winner of the 2008 National Theatre Award, is one of the most prestigious theatre companies in Spain and a benchmark of investigative theatre. Together with the TNT International Investigation Centre, it is the project that is most highly valued by the INAEM [National Institute of Performing Arts and Music] of the Ministry of Culture.
In the course of its 40 years of activity, the company has performed in more than 600 theatres in 44 countries, It has also participated in some 200 international festivals and won nearly one hundred awards. Its theatrical language is characterised by poetic drama in which energy, together with the power of images, voice and atmosphere, are noteworthy, transmitting a strong emotional component to spectators, regardless of age or cultural or social background.
