Pasacalles en Plasencia: Aquiles

Achilles, son of the goddess Thetis and the mortal Peleus, was one of the great heroes of Greek mythology. Of all those who fought in the Trojan War, he was the most recognized. His role in the war was decisive for the victory of the Greeks, but that did not mean that he could attend the fall of Troy. Despite his superhuman qualities, Achilles was mortal. His death was anticipated and, unlike other figures such as Heracles, he did not expect edification, but instead, a life of despair in the world of shadows. The extreme strength, cruelty, arrogance and beauty of Achilles became the prototype of all those who wanted to pay to live an illustrious, dangerous and accelerated life. After its success in the 67th edition of the Mérida Festival, La Fam Teatre returns, this time, in a new venue that joins the Festival’s programming: Plasencia.
