A 21st century look at the great classic of Catalan theatre.
Pablo Ley turns Àngel Guimerà’s classic play into a detective story and an extraordinary thriller about the class struggle.
Without losing sight of the origins or changing the essence of this universal text, Pablo Ley’s dramaturgy sets Terra baixa in the 20th century and introduces two new characters: a journalist and a police inspector, Vinagret, who will be responsible for investigating a crime in which a worker has murdered his employer. Manelic has killed Sebastià to free Marta (and himself).
