Theatre production tackles gender violence at autumn festival

On 21 November at 20:00, the play ‘Un tiro cada uno’ will be staged at the Auditorio Pilar Bardem. Written by Mariana de la Mata, Consuelo Iturraspe, and Laura Sbdar, the production addresses the harrowing themes of gender violence through the story of three young men, Ale, Nacho, and P., who are basketball players in Bahía Blanca, Argentina. That fateful night, they commit a rape and a femicide.

This narrative delves into the issue of gender violence, drawing from real-life cases in Argentina. The performance coincides with the municipal campaign against gender violence organised by the Rivas-Vaciamadrid City Council every November and is part of the 2026 Autumn Festival in Madrid.

The cast includes Fiamma Carranza Macchi, Carolina Kopelioff, and Camila Peralta, who portray the trio of perpetrators, offering a critical examination of violent masculinity dynamics.

Consuelo Iturraspe, a noted playwright and poet, is recognised for works such as ‘Cemento’ and the poetry collections ‘Acaricio perros’ and ‘En lugar de dormir’. Laura Sbdar, also a playwright, is the founder of the Festival de Teatro en la Cárcel and received the Aura Estrada International Literature Prize for her novel ‘Hasta que brille’. In 2022, they founded the theatre company Las Rosas, which presents this production.

This performance is part of the Network of Theatres of the Community of Madrid.
