Charo López - Poesía de Mujer

A recital by actress Charo López featuring texts by writers including Rosalía de Castro, Gabriela Mistral and Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, accompanied on piano by Víctor Carbajo and with the voice of baritone Luis Santana.

Poesía de Mujer is a recital in which Charo López performs texts by women writers from different eras and places. The programme brings together Gloria Fuertes, Gabriela Mistral, Rosalía de Castro, Alfonsina Storni, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Carolina Coronado, Emilia Pardo Bazán and Santa Teresa de Jesús.

On stage, the actress is accompanied on piano by Víctor Carbajo, and the voice of baritone Luis Santana alternates with hers throughout the programme. The production presents it as a sentimental journey in which the words of each author speak to those of the others through shared emotions.

The project grows out of Charo López's personal wish to bring together these texts, which do not share a common thematic thread, in order to highlight a little-recognised female perspective. According to the presentation, these authors offer a direct testimony to the events of their time, both from an artistic and intellectual standpoint and from the experience of women. This show is performed at the Teatro del Soho CaixaBank in Málaga.
