The Isladak Antzerki Soziala group will premiere its third work, the play 'Elisabeth', tomorrow, the 19th, at the Seminarixoa. The performance starts at 8:00 PM and involves twelve actors.

The result of work begun a year ago will be presented on stage. Tickets are available for eight euros on the seminarixoa.eus portal.
The play 'Elisabeth' is a theatrical adaptation of the novel Lecciones de química by Bonnie Garmus. It addresses the struggle of women in the field of science during the 1950s.

"We decided to bring the situation of women to the table, and for that, we base ourselves on the history of a woman from the 50s."

Mikel Irizar · Director
The play allows for a comparison between the situation of that era and the present, as the story is based on an account that the protagonist, named Elisabeth, gives to her granddaughter.

Throughout the play, it is evident that the situation then and now are not the same, but there are also several elements that are very similar and need improvement.
