GMT ‘FARÁNDULA’. The Municipal Theater Group was created in 1983, and debuted in 1984 with the play ‘En la ardiente oscuridad’, by Buero Vallejo. Since then it has premiered almost a hundred titles of different theatrical genres.

Among the numerous awards received, it is worth mentioning the one awarded in the XV Certamen de Campillos: best play and best female interpretation for Mª Victoria de Miguel with ‘La gata sobre un tejado de zinc caliente’, a free version of the play based on the text by playwright Tennessee Williams, whose interpretation also earned her the Best Play Award in the National Theater Contest ‘Villa de Pizarra 2014’.

In the XIII Certamen de Campillos, two of its components: Rafa Alijas and Mar Berlanga, were, likewise, recognized as best performers in the well-known play by Adolfo Marsillach ‘Yo me bajo en la próxima, ¿y usted?’. In 2011 two recognitions stand out: award for best male interpretation to Miguel López for his role in ‘Gaviotas subterráneas’ in the XI Certamen de Campillos and in the III Certamen de Teatro de Olvera. And that same year he received the ‘Torre Almenara 2011’ Award as Best Cultural Entity, granted by the 24 Hours Sports Foundation of Estepona.

In addition, the GMT ‘Farándula’ won in 2016 two awards at the XVI Certamen de Teatro ‘Isidro Carbonero Villa de Campillos’. The show ‘Mamás’, a comic play by Marc Egea in which two women tell their experience in the world of motherhood, won the award for best female performer for Mercedes Bazán and best scenography.

Since 1998, GMT ‘Farándula’ has been directed by Jesús Luque.
