La Reina Brava

La Reina Brava: A Bold Tale of Revenge and Justice at Teatro Cervantes
Experience a powerful exploration of female strength and social justice this season. Las Niñas de Cádiz brings La Reina Brava to the Teatro Cervantes in Málaga. As a highlight of the 43rd Theater Festival, this production joins the “Teatro en Femenino” cycle. The City Council of Málaga’s Equality Department supports this initiative. On Thursday, January 15, 2026, audiences can witness this gripping story of a regicide. A mother’s thirst for vengeance drives the intense plot.
A Dark Tale of Mercy and Memory
The play tells the story of an assassinated queen. Everyone hates this woman, but no one dares to confront her—except for one mother. Driven by the destruction of her daughter’s life, she breaks all rules to kill the monarch. She shows no mercy. Consequently, a shameful trial follows, filled with lies and a ruthless condemnation to oblivion. Furthermore, the narrative challenges the audience to reflect on justice and historical silence.
The Unique Style of Las Niñas de Cádiz
Ana López Segovia directed and wrote the production. It fuses elements of popular culture and folklore with high tradition. In addition, the group delivers the performance through a lens of sharp humor. The company draws inspiration from the puellae gaditanae. These women were celebrated singers and dancers of the Roman Empire. Their work remains irreverent, provocative, and free. They stay true to their roots in the ancient city of Cádiz.
In short, do not miss this 80-minute theatrical journey. It blends tradition with contemporary social critique. Secure your tickets now for a night of profound emotion and cultural fusion.
