1936

‘1936’ is the theatrical project that will depict our civil war. Following ‘Shock 1 (The Condor and the Puma)’ and ‘Shock 2 (The Storm and the War)’, which are based on the advancement of disaster capitalism through coups and wars, this reflection arises from the need to understand our contemporary history marked by the first major shock of the 20th century after the First World War: the coup d’état of July 18 that led to a civil war lasting three long years. If we understand “shock” as the violent blow to a society that leads to the implementation of an economic, political, and social regime, what was experienced in Spain in ’36 initiated a great shock that would last 40 years and still has a decisive influence on all sectors and classes of Spanish society.
