«Tres sombreros de copa» is the theatrical comedy by Miguel Mihura, published by Pearson Alhambra in paperback (113 pages, in Spanish).
Dionisio, about to get married, spends his last night as a bachelor in a provincial hotel. There he meets Paula, a variety dancer who embodies bohemian freedom, against the bourgeois and monotonous world awaiting him. With absurd humour and implausible situations, the comedy offers social criticism and anticipates the theatre of the absurd.
The edition is part of the Alhambra literatura collection and its bibliography is on pages 38-40.
For literature students and fans of 20th-century classic Spanish theatre.
Miguel Mihura Santos was a Spanish playwright. He is best known for his comedy Tres sombreros de copa (1952), a work of absurd humor that predates similar works by Beckett or Ionesco and that broke with many of the previous conventions of Spanish comic theatre. He was also active as a comics artist.
