City of Palencia Theater Festival
Theater festival in which both traditional plays and circus or dance performances are combined.
Every September, some of the best stage productions on the national billboard come to the 'Ciudad de Palencia' Theater Festival, which after more than 40 years of experience can boast of being the oldest in Castilla y León and having brought together some of the most relevant companies, stage directors, playwrights and interpreters of our scene, such as Concha Velasco, Vicky Peña, José Sacristán or Héctor Alterio, among others. Classical authors and more contemporary proposals coexist in a festival that also takes to the streets to surprise spectators with itinerant street arts, monologues, vertical dance and circus. Spectators also have the last word, since with their votes the awards for the best performers, best direction and best stage design fail.
