La Saga

La Saga is a comedy by Ramón Madaula about a family with a long patriarchal tradition, shaken when the daughter of a prominent businessman decides to put her mother's surname first. It stars Fernando Tejero, Helena Kaittani and Tomy Aguilera.

The protagonist of this show, the daughter of a well-known businessman and committed to the fight for women's rights, decides to swap the order of her surnames so that her mother's comes before her father's. That gesture of protest calls into question the customs of a household with generations of history and drives the plot.

The play humorously explores the contradictions between what is professed and what is practised: to what extent principles hold when the pressures of social and emotional reality, or the temptation of money, come into play. On stage, Fernando Tejero leads the cast alongside Helena Kaittani and Tomy Aguilera, in a comedy that tackles serious issues without giving up on laughter.

The Teatro Bellas Artes, whose programme focuses on plays, hosts this performance in Madrid.
