Tía Nadie Es Perfecta

A comedy by Javi Cantos about five childhood friends who meet again in Formentera for a wedding and try to appear to have perfect lives, although the masks eventually slip.

Five friends who haven't seen each other in years come together again in Formentera to celebrate a wedding. At first they strive to prove that their lives are going as well as they appear to be, but as the show goes on, shared confidences and memories bring to light insecurities, abandoned plans and secrets they have long kept hidden. The humour springs from the everyday situations of the get-together: a fiancé with a home in Marbella, table decorations that go wrong and a coffee maker that becomes part of the mix-up.

The production is directed by Javi Cantos and the cast is made up of Almudena Alcocer, Maria Francés, Julia Olcina, Yaiza de la Torre and Alejandra Lozano. The show lasts approximately one hour and is a warm, down-to-earth comedy, focused on the dialogue and on the protagonists living together.

The play is staged at the Madrid venue La Escalera de Jacob, a space that hosts concerts and shows. It is aimed at anyone who enjoys comedy about friendships between women and about what lies behind appearances.
