Contemporary Spanish theatre has sporadically dealt with recent or ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, but with extremely interesting results: Palestinians, Israelis, Iraqis, Moroccans, Syrians are characters that appear in texts such as El suicidio del ángel by Aurora Mateos (2007), Bajo el cielo de Gaza by Luis Matilla (2015) or Mare Nostrum, finis somnia vuestra by Marco Magoa (2016). Violence is, unfortunately, the red thread that binds an otherwise heterogeneous production in terms of verbal and theatrical language. The contribution aims to investigate the expressive modes through which the obscenity of war, conflicts, clashes, blood, wounds are brought to the stage.
