King Lear in a minimalist version at Teatro Principal, Burgos

Teatro Principal

On Friday 20 November 2026 at 21:00 the Teatro Principal in Burgos presents Rey Lear by the company Cia Do Chapito, part of the Castilla y León theatre network. In this minimalist version of Shakespeare's tragedy, three performers play all the characters, moving constantly between layers of acting. The listing describes theatre about theatre, a stage where figures dissolve and rebuild while the play lays bare power and greed. It is billed as a comic style and runs about eighty minutes. Tickets cost 10 euros according to the listing; the ticket seller is not part of our source list, so the price shows as unknown in the app. Going to the theatre alone suits a short, intense show: you share the laughter with a full room and can talk it over afterwards. «Tres intérpretes encarnan a todos los personajes» Starts 21:00, ends about 22:20.
