There are few shows on the Catalan stage that bring together top-tier actors and actresses and give them leading roles designed to make them all shine on stage. The children, Lucy Kirkwood's play is one of those opportunities, and the public knows it and has made it known: before the opening on Saturday, February 7th at the Villarroel Theatre, more than 15,000 tickets have already been sold, a new advance sales record for the venue. The first four performances are sold out, and for many of the others (the play runs until March 29th), only a few seats remain. The three main attractions of the show are the actors Emma Vilarasau, Jordi Boixaderas, and Mercè Aránega, who star in a tragicomedy about the responsibility of current generations for the future. David Selvas directs, in a production by La Brutal with a translation by Cristina Genebat.
