From November 8th - 16th, Alicante will be transformed into a giant stage for
dozens of theatrical productions.

On Friday 7th November, the 16th Exhibition of Contemporary Spanish Theatre 
will be underway in Alicante. The festival runs until November 16th, giving you 
the chance to discover contemporary playwrights and, of course, their work. This
 year, the event will be paying tribute to Jesús Campos.
The festival  begins at the Arniches Theatre with 2.24, a disconcerting
epistolary  play portraying a journey crossing the boundaries between sanity and
delirium.  Then, on Saturday at 6 p.m., Lo Morant Park will be transformed into
a stage for  the cast of Éxodo , followed later on by Antígona 18100-7 
performed at the University of Alicante Audtiorium. And to bring Saturday's 
theatrical repertoire to a close, Sol@nte el peligro will be performed  at
midnight in the Clan Cabaret bar.
On Sunday, a team of explorers  will arrive at the Panoramis Centre to present
their latest discoveries,  Meganimals, at 6 p.m. A few hours later, the play
Días sin  nada will bring the weekend's theatre to a close. Over eight days,
dozens  of plays and theatrical representations will be performed at a large
number of  different venues, making Alicante the capital of performing arts.
