"César Manrique, the musical" landed like a whirlwind last night at the Jameos del Agua Auditorium. The magical setting of the volcanic tube, and the audience that packed it, witnessed the first session of a show that explores the passions, desires and frustrations of the genius from Lanzarote, points out the Cabildo of Lanzarote.

María Dolores Corujo, present at the premiere, highlighted "the importance of this cultural event for Lanzarote and the Canary Islands": "The premiere of 'César Manrique, the musical' is already part of the history of our culture." "This unique show immerses us in the life and legacy of our most international artist, who knew how to perfectly combine his love for the nature of the island with his undeniable artistic talent," they report.

"César Manrique, the musical" shows "the vicissitudes of a figure who always defended the independence of thought, the commitment to his land, the value of creativity, the symbiosis between nature and art, the environment, the combination of tradition and modernity and nature as a tourist value without diminishing its essence," they comment.

The montage, organized by the Cabildo of Lanzarote, is written by Manolo González, directed by Israel Reyes and starring Mingo Ruano and Olga Cerpa.

It brings together more than 36 actors and musicians, and has been carried out, at all times, with the supervision of the César Manrique Foundation and the support of Culture and Tourism, as well as the Tourist Centers of Lanzarote.
