The Fundación Mediterráneo expands the sixth edition of the Teatre del Mediterrani cycle with a lineup of compelling performances. Ron Carter’s last thought, produced by Baranda Theatre in Elche, is presented as the opening act. The show is scheduled for Wednesday, July 27 at 20:00, in the Fundación Mediterráneo venue in Alicante, located at Avda. Doctor Gadea, 1. Tickets are available at the box office or in advance through entradasatualcance.com.
Ron Carter’s last thought unfolds as a drama set in a prison cell, following the story of the elicitano writer Tomás Ferrando under the direction of Sonia Sierra. The narrative centers on Ron Carter and his cellmate Billy as they confront secrets, fears, and dreams hours before an imminent execution. The production, featuring a strong cast including Paco Peraile and Alberto Galera, delves into the deepest, most human reflections that surface in the final hours before death.
After the August break, the cycle resumes on Wednesday, September 7 with Huanita, adapted from the work by Marcos Altuve and presented by Theater under construction in Elche. Huanita invites a profound family meditation, opening with a sharp, ironic take on insecurity, disappointment, and judgment among relatives, inviting the audience to examine the fragility and resilience forming family bonds.
The Teatre del Mediterrani cycle receives support from the Fundación Mediterráneo in collaboration with the Diputación de Alicante through the Cultural Space program. The undertaking brings together a diverse range of non-professional theater groups from across the province, offering performances through November. The aim is to foster the development of non-professional performing arts within the Alicante region, giving regional artists a platform to showcase their work. The sixth edition broadens its programming by moving into the summer months for the first time, expanding access to live theater during June and July.
