No visit to Spain would be complete without a visit to the theatre to see some traditional Spanish zarzuela (operetta). Running from 30th April until 8th May at the Teatros del Canal, is La Revoltosa, the story of a beautiful rebellious young women who causes quite a stir in a typical working class barrio of Madrid during the 19th century. Written by Carlos Fernández Shaw and José López Silva, with music by Ruperto Chapí, it has come to be one of the best loved zarzuelas since it was first perfromed in Barcelona back in 1897.
You can catch the performance at the Sala Verde at the Teatros del Canal 30/4-8/5. Performances Tues-Sat 7pm and 9pm, Sundays 6pm and 8pm. Ticket prices vary between 15€-25€ and can be bought here.
