Changes in the leadership of some of the Grup Focus theaters. Josep Maria Pou, until now director of the Teatre Romea, is leaving the position to take on new responsibilities. Pou will be artistic ambassador for Focus. "The group is sending me around the world to do what I like most: enter a theater and discover new shows, new ideas, new creators, new ways of telling stories. I will be a privileged observer and when I find something exciting, fun, and extraordinary that deserves to be shared, I will do everything possible to ensure it reaches any of the Focus stages," said Pou during an event held by the group with the media.

Likewise, Pablo Isla will be appointed the new vice president of L'Oréal, Covestro is redefining the leadership of its production centers in Catalonia, and the Focus group has appointed a new CEO.

This Friday, she presented it from the stage of the same theater, thirty-one years later, having become one of the most important voices in Catalan musical theater and in character as Mrs. Johnstone, one of the protagonists. "I've had to make a conscious effort not to remember that version that I know by heart, because we've rehearsed from scratch as if it were a new production," she assures. "I don't feel Àngels Gonyalons' shadow looming over me [who played her role], but rather accompanying me and giving me her blessing, as if I knew her."
