Show «Mary»

From 13 May, Espai Texas presents «Mary», a show created by Lara Díez Quintanilla from her family history. A simple, honest and deeply human tribute.

About this event

«Mary» is born from something small: a conversation, a memory, a feeling. But from there, Lara Díez Quintanilla builds a profound and captivating monologue that reaches far. She is alone on stage, but it does not feel like a crowd. She is accompanied by the voices of many women who shaped her: those who kept silent, those who cared, those who endured without making a sound.

The work does not seek grand gestures; it prefers the simple and everyday. From an object, a word, a pause, every detail is placed with intention and meaning. What happens on stage is not fiction: it is shared memory. Lara does not act; she recounts. She tells what she lived through, what she was told, what many families keep unspoken. And she does so with humour, tenderness and a moving clarity.

«Mary» does not need to explain too much. Sometimes, looking back is enough to understand where we come from. If you want to see a piece that touches the truth, without filters, come to Espai Texas. This is one of those stories worth hearing.
