«Tres sombreros de copa» is the stage comedy by Miguel Mihura, published by Almadraba Editorial in paperback (167 pages, in Spanish).
The play pits two worlds against each other: bourgeois order, with its rules and conventions, and the carefree joy of a group of artists who embody free life. With light-hearted humour, Mihura denounces the absurdity of everyday life and the emptiness of social clichés.
The play was written in 1932 and was not premiered until 1952. It belongs to the Clásicos Almadraba collection (volume 2) and this edition includes an introduction, explanatory notes and didactic activities.
Aimed at young readers approaching classic Spanish literature and at classroom use, with supporting didactic material.
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.
