The Txalo Company will present the play Trajea at the Zelai Arizti aretoa in Zumarraga this Friday, April 7th, starring actors Joseba Apaolaza and Asier Hormaza, as part of the 2026 performing arts program.

This Friday, April 7th, at 8:30 PM, the Txalo Company will perform the play Trajea at the Zelai Arizti aretoa in Zumarraga. The production features Joseba Apaolaza from Urretxu and Asier Hormaza from Getxo in the leading roles.
The play's plot revolves around an incident that occurs on the first day of sales at a large department store in the capital. Deep within the building, a security guard (played by Apaolaza) interrogates a businessman (portrayed by Hormaza) who has come to purchase a suit and appears to be connected to the events. The theatrical piece aims to uncover the precise details of what happened and the risks faced by both characters.
This Friday's performance has been organized by the municipalities of Urretxu and Zumarraga, as part of their 2026 performing arts program. This year, an additional show for adults and another for children have been added, following a request from the Theater Network to include circus and dance performances. Consequently, the program commenced in January, an earlier start than in previous years.
The adult program includes ten performances. On January 16th, the Osa+Mujika Company presented Lana; on February 6th, the Perigallo Company offered Por voluntad propia; and on March 6th, the Hika Company staged Zorretan. Upcoming highlights include Tanttaka Company's Sabes que las flores de plastico nunca han vivido, ¿verdad? on May 8th, and Jon Ander Urresti's Kolapsoa on June 5th. On September 4th, Circo Flamenco will present a circus, flamenco, and humor show, and on October 2nd, Mikel Azpiroz will launch his album Pake Pieza. The program continues with Sutottos Company's Feliz dia on November 6th and concludes with Tartean Company's Kandida on December 4th.
