Can Ventosa presents on Saturday April 13, 2019 a single performance of the play “Mar de Fons”, a show by Iguana Teatre
The auditorium of Can Ventosa in Ibiza city brings you a unique performance of the play “Sea of Fons”, A production of Iguana Teatre that revives the failure of the 1936 republican attempt to recover Mallorca from the hands of the coup plotters.
The function is the Saturday 13 of April of 2019 at 21 hours.
In the work, directed by Pere Fullana, the unsuccessful invasion of Majorca by the republican troops and the subsequent reprisals of the coup plotters against the militiamen left behind, as well as against many civilians accused of sympathizing with the democratic regime.
In the summer of 1936 Republican troops arrived from Catalonia landed on the coasts of the Mallorcan East to recover the island, which had positioned itself on the side of the military uprising. The operation was an absolute failure and, in three weeks, the Republicans had to leave. In the withdrawal of the troops, hasty and ill-organized, many militiamen and militia were left on the ground, captured, tortured, exhibited as trophies of war and even shot.
And along with them, many men and women suspected of being akin to republican ideals will also be eliminated, often arbitrarily.
“Mar de Fons” has been created from real testimonies of people involved in those events. Remains of lives performed by eight actresses, actors and musicians. Voices that speak from beyond, instants of dreams, thoughts and testimonies.
All the Advance tickets they cost $12 and you can take them out through the web of the Town Hall of Ibiza. If you buy box office the same day of the function cost $15.
