Synopsis

Ambientada a Nova York en temps de les eleccions presidencials del 2016, tres dècades després de l'esclat de l'epidèmia de la sida, "L'herència" presenta un mosaic d'històries interconnectades entre homes homosexuals de diverses edats i classes socials per explorar què devem a qui va viure, estimar i patir abans que nosaltres. L'obra segueix la història d'Eric i Toby, una parella amb visions diferents sobre l'amor i el compromís, mentre les seves vides s'entrecreuen amb personatges més grans i més joves que carreguen el pes del passat, la recerca d'identitat i el desig de construir un futur. La peça de Matthew López, inspirada lliurement en la novel·la "Howards End" d'E. M. Forster, posa el focus en la transmissió, el llegat i la connexió entre generacions. Èpica, sensual i commovedora, ha estat aclamada internacionalment, multipremiada i considerada per la crítica com l'obra nord-americana més important del segle.

    "La peste gròga : Pessa còmica-burlesca, composta d''afagitons bosquetjats del…" by Pere d''Alcàntara Penya i Nicolau is a comic-burlesque stage play written in the late 19th century. Set in Palma during the panic of the yellow fever scare of the early 1870s, it lampoons rumor, fear, and official overreaction. The likely topic is a satirical take on public hysteria, misinformation, and everyday opportunism during a supposed epidemic. The one-act action unfolds on a city street as a cobbler (Mestre Cinto) and a coffee vendor (Ignaci) trade rumors about "the yellow plague," while a shopkeeper (l'Amo 'n Pau), two doctors (Don Nadal and Don Tófol), and a city councilor (Pere-Antoni) move in and out. When a sack is delivered to the shopkeeper's closed store, the gossips decide it hides an infected woman smuggled past the city gates. Authorities arrive, tensions rise, and suspicion peaks—until the supposed "pest" is revealed to be a gigantic yellow squash (carabassa) proudly produced for inspection. The farce ends with the busybodies chastened, and the play punctures the folly of credulity and the chaos that fear—rather than disease—can spread.

    Este libro es una recopilación de poemas dividido en cuatro partes: Poemas impertinentes, Aforismos para subsistir, Contra-refranes y Epigramas implacables, Todas ellas con un fondo común: Una visión crítica, por no decir sarcástica del momento actual que nos ha tocado vivir, tanto a nivel individual, político o colectivo.
        Ya sean hechos de una mínima o máxima trascendencia siempre, el autor intento quitarles todo el zumo posible (a los poemas). Por eso siempre tienen cierto cariz de fábula con moraleja final, cierto cariz aforístico, que resultan inesperadas, creativas, enriquecen el lenguaje y, en último término, invitan a cambiar la forma que tenemos de concebir una realidad concreta.

    Un pis al ensanche by José Feliú y Codina is a one-act stage comedy written in the late 19th century. Set in contemporary Barcelona, it centers on a bachelor's Eixample apartment and the romantic mix-ups that swirl around it. The play playfully explores courtship, jealousy, and gossip as a wedding plan collides with old flames and new tenants. The action follows Feliu, a middle-aged bachelor preparing to marry Eulalia and vacate his beloved flat. While a meticulous notary keeps asking if he is truly decided, two prospective tenants arrive: Carreras, a hot-blooded gentleman, and Guadalupe, his former fiancée, whose engagement to him collapsed amid rumors about a notorious "invited guest." Recognizing each other in Feliu's living room, they relive their quarrel and trade accusations, with Feliu awkwardly mediating. The argument uncovers that the scandalous guest was Eulalia herself, prompting Feliu to break off his wedding and cling to his bachelor's life. The notary reappears as Feliu nudges Carreras and Guadalupe toward reconciliation, and a final message announces that the scheming Miralles has married Eulalia—leaving Feliu happily in his old apartment and the estranged pair newly open to making peace.
