Jóvenes Clásicos’ Musical Adaptation of Calderón’s Amar después de la muerte, in Collaboration with Radio Comedia, to Be Performed in Málaga on May 18th

On May 18th, at the Teatro Echegaray in Málaga, Jóvenes Clásicos, the Málaga-based theater company, will present a musical adaptation of Calderón de la Barca’s Amar después de la muerte. This production marks the company’s fourth collaboration with Diversifying the Classics and its third with Radio Comedia.

In Amar después de la muerte, Calderón immerses us in one of the most turbulent chapters of Spanish history: the Rebellion of the Alpujarras. It is a heartrending tragedy of a love destroyed by conflict, but also a tribute to a people and a story that must not be forgotten. Its themes—class struggle, intergenerational conflict, justice, and assimilation—remain profoundly relevant today. This musical audio play not only explores a vibrant and evolving genre, but also delivers a raw, impassioned cry against the pain and suffering inherent in every armed conflict.
