Theme and Director's Perspective

According to director José Troncoso, the play tells the story of a man with a passion for acting but who is the worst actor in the world, something the director knows from his experience as a drama teacher.

Actor Pepón Nieto takes to the stage with the national premiere of La pasión infinita, a new theatrical production presented at the Juan Bravo Theater in Segovia. Performances are scheduled for 8:30 PM on Friday, February 20 and Saturday, February 21. The play is a production by Pentación Espectáculos, a company that maintains a long-standing relationship with this theater, according to sources from the organization.

Pepón Nieto, born in San Pedro de Alcántara (Málaga) in 1967, is an actor with an extensive career in film, television, and theater in Spain, recognizable for roles in series such as Aquí no hay quien viva or La que se avecina. The Juan Bravo Theater in Segovia, inaugurated in 1917, is a historic coliseum that has hosted numerous premieres and top-level cultural events throughout its century of history. In a recent interview, Nieto recalled paternal advice at the start of his career: „„When I started as an actor, my father told me I was going to get a hard knock”” — Pepón Nieto. This premiere seems far from that prediction, as the performance is announced as one of the standout comedies of the season. The play's director, José Troncoso, defines the project as the story of „„a poor man”” — José Troncoso who longs to live from acting but whom „„the fairies of talent”” — José Troncoso have not called, becoming the worst actor imaginable. Troncoso connects this plot with his own teaching experience, where he has seen many people leave everything for a passion that does not always translate into success.

The play not only features Nieto as the protagonist but also presents a cast of notable quality. Alongside the actor from Málaga perform Claudio Tolcachir, a renowned Argentine director and actor, and Ana Labordeta, an actress with a solid career in theater and television. The cast is completed by Avelino Piedad and pianist Lola Barroso, whose live participation adds a special musical component to the show. After the premiere in Segovia, the play is scheduled to begin a tour across Spain, with performances already confirmed for April in Roquetas de Mar (Almería) and Villaviciosa (Asturias).
