Corral Cervantes

An initiative bringing together five works of Spain's Golden Age classical theatre in Madrid, promoted by the Fundación Siglo de Oro and staged at the Centro Cultural Casa del Reloj.

Corral Cervantes is an initiative that brings together the staging of five works of Spanish classical theatre: La dama boba, El perro del hortelano, Amor secreto hasta celos, Don Gil de las calzas verdes and La francesa Laura. The gathering is conceived as a celebration of Golden Age theatre and takes place in the Nave de Terneras, a space inside the Centro Cultural Casa del Reloj, in Madrid.

The productions come through the Fundación Siglo de Oro, with the collaboration of Beon Worldwide, and receive institutional support from state, regional and municipal cultural bodies. In 2018 the company received the Medalla de Oro de las Artes Escénicas for its work in rescuing, staging and promoting Golden Age drama. Since 2017 it has also driven the Festival Fiesta Corral Cervantes, at which it has staged numerous shows.

Among the company's milestones is having brought an author writing in a language other than English to London's Shakespeare's Globe theatre, with a staging of El castigo sin venganza.
