The Teatre Principal program for this semester will open with Anar a Saturn i tornar, by Marta Barceló. A program that until July 2021 will offer all kinds of scenic registers, from opera to popular gloss. This new list of shows, with more than 40 titles, has been conditioned by the Covid-19 pandemic. The main consequence has been the postponement of the opera L’elisir d’amore, which was scheduled for the first week of March, with new dates yet to be confirmed.
Programming in the Grand Hall has also been prioritized, due to current 30% capacity restrictions. With this capacity, the Sala Petita can receive only 40 spectators, which makes programming in this room unfeasible. In addition, all functions in February and March will be at 7:00 p.m., except those on Sundays which are held at 6:00 p.m. All this, to facilitate the ability to respect the curfew of 22:00.
The Teatre Principal has wanted to put emphasis on programming companies from the islands, given the difficult circumstances that the scenic sector is going through. Thus, of the 54 scheduled shows, 34 are from the Balearic Islands and 20 are from abroad.
