Following the success of Germans de sang, Teatre Condal presents the new Focus production, the comedy Una idea genial.
The play, written by Sébastien Castro, has been adapted by Susanna Garachana and directed by Xavier Ricart. It stars Lluís Villanueva, Xavi Mira, Susanna Garachana and Anna Azcona.
Una idea genial is a comedy of mistaken identities that has won two Molière Awards, the highest honours in French theatre. The show tells the story of Arnau, a man who suspects that his wife, Mariona, is having an affair with Oriol, the real estate agent helping them find a flat. When Arnau meets Tomás, an amateur actor who looks exactly like the agent, he hires him to impersonate him at a dinner in order to find out whether his suspicions are true. It seems like a brilliant idea… until the agent, his double and the double’s twin brother—a plumber who comes to fix a leak—cross paths. Three identical men and a nosy neighbour will make the plan seem far less brilliant than it first appeared.
