There is no denying that Madrid is a vibrant cultural city. Art is present in different forms: painting, architecture, music, poetry... and its history is linked to many artists. Let's focus on theatre today, and we will discuss which plays are not to be missed during your visit to the capital.

The Lion King musical

A classic in Madrid! It has been running since 2011 at the Lope de Vega Theatre, just a 3-minute walk from our apartments.

If you haven't seen it yet, don't put it off any longer and book your ticket in advance. It is the ideal musical for the whole family, as it will surprise children and adults alike. 

The Exact Measure of the Universe

On 3 November, the Lara Theatre premières this existentialist, emotional play with a story as simple as it is complex, which, through its plot, raises the question: Are you the person you dreamed of being when you were young? Highly recommended for nostalgic people who come to the theatre in search of food for thought, besides simply having a good time. You will be able to enjoy it until 5 January 2022, and don't forget that Gran View Apartments is quite close to this theatre, less than 5 minutes away!
