Celebrating 35 years on stage and captivating audiences, Chincheta has become a staple of the Canary Islands’ performing arts scene. The production recently received recognition with the Myau Estuartini Award at the 10th edition of the Castilla-La Mancha International Circus Festival 2024, an honor acknowledging its creativity and social commitment.
The play, written by Luis Monzón, features a close-knit and charismatic cast including Luis Monzón, Aitana Monzón, and Luis Niño, with lighting design by Beny Arencibia.
A Funny, Tender, and Necessary Story
The story centers around a charming premise: a rural and quirky character appears before the audience intending to deliver a gift and showcase their latest invention – an invention as absurd as it is ingenious. As the protagonist warns, the show may appeal to some and not to others… but it’s guaranteed to leave no one indifferent.
Through humor, playful staging, and relatable storytelling, the work touches on climate change, love, friendship, and the importance of caring for the world around us. The creator has been publicly lauded for his educational work and his ability to raise awareness among both children and adults about environmental stewardship and fundamental values like solidarity and coexistence.
A Theatrical Event for the Whole Family
Audiences in Guía will have the opportunity to experience a performance that blends tradition, humor, and reflection, keeping alive the spirit of family theater that defines Timbiriqui Teatro.
Chincheta is part of the Gran Canaria Performing Arts Circuit, promoting cultural accessibility across the island’s municipalities and supporting high-quality stage productions. This performance arrives as theater continues to be a vital part of community engagement and artistic expression.
