The curtain has already gone up on the 46th edition of the Almagro International Classical Theater Festival. It was inaugurated with a complete corral of comedies, which enjoyed at the beginning of the performance of the Youth Choir of Madrid. An inauguration marked by the delivery of the XXIII Corral de Comedias Award to the actress Blanca Portillo, for a career that stands out for the combination between the classic and the contemporary. The Festival wanted to honor a professional who has given a new voice to the Golden Age, which this edition is about. Portillo was grateful and she used the word as a vehicle of expression in her speech.
I can’t find words to convey the feeling of pride and responsibility that receiving this award produces in me.
