53 DOMINGOS – Cesc Gay’s comedy opens the new season at Teatre Condal

17/08/2026

From September 9 to 27, Teatre Condal will host 53 domingos, the new comedy by Cesc Gay, one of the most acclaimed playwrights and filmmakers on the Catalan cultural scene. Following the undeniable success of Los vecinos de arriba, seen by more than 150,000 spectators, Gay returns with a proposal that is as hilarious as it is moving, centred on family relationships.

The play stars Julián López, Pepa Charro, Xavi Mira and Candela Serrat, who bring to life a gathering of siblings where affection, rivalry and long-buried secrets unexpectedly rise to the surface. With his trademark intelligent humour and keen powers of observation, Gay crafts a story in which a simple conversation can unleash a genuine emotional battle.

53 domingos blends comedy and emotion to explore the complexities of family relationships, showing how major conflicts often emerge from the smallest details. A play full of truth, witty dialogue and relatable situations that invites audiences to see a reflection of their own families on stage. An unmissable highlight of Barcelona’s theatre season.
