Who is on stage
The production is directed by Juan Motilla, with an adaptation by Antonio Campos and Motilla himself. The cast is led by José María del Castillo as Don Juan Tenorio and Silvia Beaterio as Doña Inés de Ulloa. Completing the cast are Íñigo Núñez (Don Gonzalo de Ulloa), Luis Alberto Domínguez (Don Luis Mejías), José Chaves (Don Diego Tenorio and the sculptor), Guillermo Jiménez (Ciutti), Gina Escánez (Buttarelli, Lucía and the abbess), Manuela Reina (Brígida), Santi Rivera (captain Centellas) and Nacho Bravo (Don Rafael de Avellaneda).
For the company, this play has a special value: it was the production with which it began its professional activity in 2005. The director, Juan Motilla, says that «the closeness that this stage space offers with the audience is very special» and considers it a luxury to perform here a text where «the essence of Sevilla runs through the whole text».
Heritage as a stage
The initiative is promoted by the Área de Cultura y Ciudadanía of the Diputación de Sevilla, which programs cultural activities in the monumental complex. The provincial deputy for Cultura y Ciudadanía, Casimiro Fernández, states that San Luis «is also a living space, capable of hosting cultural proposals».
