Cucaracha

«Cucaracha» is performed at Club Rambleta, one of the venues within the La Rambleta cultural centre, on Saturday the 3rd and Sunday the 4th of October. The listing puts Saturday's performance start time at 20:30; no time is specified for Sunday, so it's worth checking on the official page before booking, since it's common for a second-day performance to run on a different schedule from the first.

What the play is about

The piece portrays a school community trying not to fall apart while the State turns its teenagers into material for war: a teacher insists on pressing on with the curriculum while violence seeps in through the cracks of the classroom. The approach leaves open, without fully resolving it, the question of whether education can save someone no matter what happens, according to the summary offered by the show's own organisers. The listing does not state whether the two performances share the same cast or whether there are cast changes between Saturday and Sunday.

Tickets are sold by zone, a common arrangement in venues with tiered seating: €29 plus a €2 booking fee in zone A, €26 plus €2 in zone B, and €23 plus €2 in zone C, with the same fixed booking fee across all three. Neither the length of the performance nor a recommended minimum age appears in the available announcement for this production. To round out the weekend with other plans, the guide to the weekend in Valencia gathers additional options inside and outside the theatre.
