Crescendo International Choir will be performing in a preview of the much-anticipated play El hombre del banco (The man on the bench). It will take place Saturday 25 April at 8 pm in the auditorium of the Los Montesinos School of Music and Culture, Calle Zaragoza, 5.
This particular theatrical production aims to be performed nationwide so this is your opportunity to see it now in a local venue. The play was written by Lorenzo Segura and performed by actors Isabel Verdejo and Salva Monleón. They are “certain that this theatrical experience will leave no one unmoved, and they hope its message resonates with you.”
Crescendo International Choir, led by Music Director Irene Oliva, will provide live music for the performance, accompanied by violinist Josep Andreu Martínez. The cost to attend is only €5, with proceeds going to Crescendo International Choir, an association that raises funds for various organizations and charitable causes.
