JOE STRUMMER TAKES A WALK
by Juan Alberto Salvatierra
Translated by L. Finch
Directed by Jorge de Juan
In 1985, Joe Strummer was in Granada and decided, together with Jesús Arias, with a pick and a shovel, to unearth the corpse of Federico García Lorca. The punk star unearthing García Lorca… Joe Strummer takes a walk is the result of that emotion and that need to know a fantastic story.

La estrella del punk desenterrando a García Lorca… El paseo de Joe Strummer, es el resultado de esa emoción y de esa necesidad por conocer una historia fantástica.

Autumn Season 2020
2020 has proven to be one of the most challenging years for the Cervantes Theatre and for the whole industry in general, but we have been working relentlessly to keep bringing you the best Spanish and Latin American theatre. This is why we decided to launch the Autumn Season as a series of online dramatised readings. The plays are translated, rehearsed in 2 days, filmed in 1 day and then streamed online for free so that you can watch them from the comfort of your home. The aim is to keep connecting with you all until we can safely reopen the doors of our theatre for public performances.
The Cervantes Theatre is a registered charity, and any donation or subscription towards our Friends Scheme will ensure that our theatre stays open after this crisis has passed.
Thank you for your support and we can’t wait to welcome you back to the Cervantes Theatre soon.
