𝗘𝗹 𝘀𝘂𝗲ñ𝗼 𝗱𝗲 𝘂𝗻𝗮 𝗻𝗼𝗰𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗼 Issued live from the Teatro de la Zarzuela on February 10, 2019. Music of Joaquín Gaztambide Patricio book of El Escosura, in an adaptation of Raúl Asenjo New production of the Teatro de la Zarzuela the dream of A Summer Night, by Joaquín Gaztambide, was premiered in February 1852 at the Teatro del Circo in Madrid. We find music of great quality and melodic delicacy that, in its day, was very popular with the public. Participating in this recovery of comic opera are a veteran musical director of this stage, Miguel Ángel Gómez-Martínez, who considers Gaztambide "interesting, amusing and possessing extraordinary musical quality", and a stage director, Marco Carniti —who works for the first time on this stage—, who wants to make us enjoy the beauty of a work that happily passes between dream and reality.

Director: Antonio Fauró Figuration: Andrea Arranz, Rafael Delgado, Iván Nieto-Balboa, Sylvia Mollá, Joseba Pinela and Álex G. Robles Don Liborio and the General Director partner to produce a film adaptation of the zarzuela A Midsummer Night's Dream . They have obtained the sponsorship of Princess Isabella Tortellini, but they need Orson Welles and Guillermo del Moro - a renowned Spanish screenwriter in exile - to collaborate on the project, so that Universal Pictures shows interest in its international distribution. To convince the screenwriter, they enlist the help of Juan Sabadete, a friend of Guillermo's and an opera singer in decline who runs a restaurant in Rome together with two Galician partners —Maruxa and Mighello— whom he exploits. Sabadete thinks that by helping don Liborio he will obtain the patronage of Princess Tortellini to return to the stage representing Falstaff, by Verdi, on the stage of the Teatro Regio, which has fallen into bankruptcy. Guillermo does not give in to the interests of the producers, nor does he pay attention to the amorous compliments of a strange woman incognito —who is none other than Isabella— and doubts that Orson Welles participates in an operation that benefits the Spanish dictatorship. The Director General hires a double who pretends to be Orson Welles and, in order for such a deception to come to fruition, Don Liborio drugs Guillermo, taking advantage of the drunken state of the artist who is celebrating his latest premiere at the restaurant. of Sabadete. In the middle of the celebration, Juan intercepts a love letter from Isabella. Believing that the message is addressed to him, He decides to end the party when the Carabineros guard appears. 𝗦𝗘𝗚𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗔 𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗧𝗘 The General Manager arrives at the restaurant with Orson Welles' double. Mr. Random appears next, a director of Universal Pictures, for whom an audition has been organized so that the American distributor approves Tortellini as the protagonist of the film. On the other hand, the effects of the drug begin to become visible in Guillermo and his friend, the heartthrob Arturo Látimer —secretly in love with Olivia, Isabella's friend—. Both wear Elizabethan costumes; Don Liborio pretends in this way that the scriptwriter believes that he is Shakespeare. After several entanglements and frustrated deceptions, Guillermo and Olivia discover the true intentions of the producers. The Princess is Don Liborio's lover and figurehead and the General Director is a corrupt politician who takes advantage of the occasion to make a cut. When Guillermo is willing to reveal the truth in front of everyone, we discover that the actor hired by the General Director is actually Orson Welles himself, posing as an impersonator of himself and that Mr. Random is Mighello, who wants revenge on the lies of Juan Sabadete. Guillermo and Orson Welles agree to play along with the producers, agreeing to sign the contract to shoot A Midsummer Night's Dream, intending to tease them later.
