Don Juan Tenorio theatrical productions in Spain

Overview

Various theatrical productions of José Zorrilla’s classic, ‘Don Juan Tenorio’, are being staged across Spain, particularly to mark the All Saints' Day season. In La Laguna, Timaginas Teatro is performing at the Teatro Leal, featuring a generational transition as Armando Jerez performs the role before his son, Miguel Ángel Jerez, takes over in 2027.

In Alcalá de Henares, the city is hosting theatricalized visits throughout November titled ‘Don Juan. El despertar del mito eterno’, which combine history and heritage. A recent performance at the Palacio Arzobispal included a moment of silence for victims of a train accident in Toledo. This mourning period also affected schedules in Córdoba, where the Diputación de Córdoba rescheduled performances at the Palacio de la Merced to late October and early November, and in Marbella.

Other regional activities include a production by De Amarillo Producciones at the Teatro López de Ayala in Badajoz on November 1. In Melilla, Oxígeno Laboratorio Cultural is presenting a dramatization at the La Purísima Cemetery, a setting intended to connect literature with memory. In Cantabria, the company Ruido Interno is staging ‘Don Juan. Cenizas y sombras’ at the Palacio de Festivales de Cantabria, a contemporary adaptation that utilizes artificial intelligence to digitally reconstruct five characters.

Historically, Televisión Española (TVE) maintained a tradition of broadcasting adaptations of the play during early November, featuring actors such as Paco Rabal and Concha Velasco, though these regular broadcasts have since transitioned to digital archives on RTVE Play.
