Lapònia, one of the most successful Catalan plays—with over twenty productions worldwide and currently on stage in seven different countries—arrives at Teatre Condal.
Written by Cristina Clemente and Marc Angelet, and precisely directed by Nelson Valente, Lapònia features a stellar cast including Míriam Iscla, David Bagés, Anna Sahun, and Albert Prat. With a sharp and dynamic script, the play invites the audience to reflect on the values we pass on to children and the small —or not so small— lies we tell to protect what we hold dear.
On Christmas Eve, two families gather in Finnish Lapland. What should be a peaceful holiday meeting quickly turns into a cultural and emotional clash when a child discovers that maybe… Santa Claus isn’t real. From that moment, a hilarious debate unfolds about truth, lies, parenting styles, and the tensions between parents, siblings, and in-laws.
