Don’t miss the play Los Piratas, The Little History during Barrio de La Paz’s cultural week
During Barrio de La Paz’s cultural week, the stage lights rise on Los Piratas, The Little History, a tale that sails beyond the ordinary. Captain Morgan arrives at a new port with a weathered treasure map tucked in his coat, a promise of adventure pulsing in every line. As the sun sinks, the plan to recover the legendary bounty begins to form. The captain gathers the crew and makes the introductions that set the course for a journey that will test loyalty, courage, and wit. Natacha Polvorilla and Simón Patastilla step forward, seasoned sailors with stories etched in their eyes, ready to chart a course through uncertain waters and toward a secret waiting to be found. The gathering takes place at the Portón de los dos cañónes, a place tucked into Plaza Martínez Olivencia de Villena, known affectionately as the square of the little birds. It is here that the crew hatches a plan, where the map’s creases become a map of possibilities, and every creak of a plank hints at danger and glory intertwined.
From that moment, the ship’s route unfurls across a widening sea of choices. The crew will cross the bay toward the distant island of Las Ballenas, where the first clues might glow under the moonlight and where every ripple in the water seems to whisper a hint. The journey continues through the Valley of Whispers, a corridor of wind and memory that tests resolve with every gust. The destination lies beyond, in the dreaded Ciénaga del Esqueleto, a place spoken of in rumors and shouted warnings alike, where the air tastes of salt and fear and treasure seems almost within reach and just out of reach at once. The crew knows that fortune favors the bold, yet pitfalls lurk in every shadow, and the treasure could demand more than skill to claim it. The narrative follows a path where courage is measured not by bravado but by the steady hand, clear aim, and steady heart that push toward a prize that might rewrite their destinies.
Yet the voyage is not simply about loot. It is also a test of the crew’s cohesion and the personal stories that bind them. The plan requires more hands, more eyes, more hidden strengths. New stewards are needed, and pirate apprentices must join the ranks if the mission is to endure the trials ahead. The possibility of fresh faces—ready to learn, eager to prove themselves, hungry for the wind in their sails—adds a new layer of tension and hope. As the tale unfolds, the audience learns about the responsibilities that come with leadership, the value of trust among strangers who become kin, and the idea that a true treasure is the camaraderie that holds a crew together through storms and silence alike. The kingdom of storytelling blossoms where danger meets devotion, and every heartbeat echoes like the drumbeat of a distant voyage.
