Mr. Gwyn Opens Jan. 15 at Teatro Helénico With Mauricio García Lozano

The production frames live theatre as a quiet act of looking in a fast, screen-driven culture.

Overview

  • Performances run from January 15 to February 15, 2026, with shows on Thursdays and Fridays at 20:00, Saturdays at 19:00, and Sundays at 18:00.
  • The stage version is adapted by Juan Cabello from Alessandro Baricco's novel and directed by Alonso Íñiguez.
  • The story follows a celebrated writer who abandons publishing to create written portraits after observing models nude for 32 days.
