Great production! I've seen the musical in English but the Madrid experience, if you don't comprehend Spanish yet, makes you focus and feel the emotions in a more sensory way. Great experience! I was in tears for the first half, and just melted during rhe second half. Highly recommended for everyone- Spanish speaking or not!

It was wonderful. We had a great time—it’s highly recommended for families. It’s suitable for all ages. Many young people attended the show accompanied by their teachers. It was clear that these were organized field trips. Everything was fabulous.
