El otro lado de la cama

A comedy of romantic entanglements in which two couples who are friends see their relationships wobble amid lies, desire and passion. It is staged at the Cartuja Center CITE in Seville.

El otro lado de la cama is a comedy of intrigue built around two couples who consider themselves inseparable friends: Paz and Ernesto, Natalia and Guillermo. The plot kicks off when Natalia falls for someone else and leaves Guillermo without revealing who he is, which leads him to seek comfort in Ernesto, his best friend.

From there, appearances begin to crack. Paz believes the couple is moving towards buying a flat, while Natalia and Ernesto are in a relationship that goes well beyond friendship. Lies, desire and passion burst into both couples and into the friendship that binds them, and the tangles are the engine of the play's humour.

The production sits within the register of stage comedy, with a tone of romantic intrigue that unfolds on the stage of the Cartuja Center CITE, a leisure venue in Seville. It is well suited to anyone looking for a story of romantic misunderstandings and deceit between friends.
