El Brujo – La segunda venida de Cristo

El Brujo presents the premiere of 'La segunda venida de Cristo o el yoga de Jesús' at the Teatro Apolo in Barcelona, a comic monologue that rereads passages of the Gospels through Eastern philosophy and the science of yoga from India.

This is a comic monologue in which Rafael Álvarez, known as El Brujo, runs through some of the most striking and symbolic passages of the Gospels, with particular attention to that of Saint John. The reading he proposes draws on Eastern philosophy and the science of yoga, two perspectives rarely taken when approaching these texts.

The staging blends the science of the soul with a brisk rhythm, humour and a festive spirit. The show is built on the complicity of an audience that laughs, and the performer himself considers it the boldest proposal of his stage career, a career that spans more than fifty years on the stage.
