Book tickets to Copla: A Spanish Cabaret at The Other Palace Theatre, London.

Step into the vibrant world of Copla: A Spanish Cabaret, a fiery celebration of live music, comedy, and camp that brings the spirit of Spain to The Other Palace for a strictly limited season this January. Copla is an unforgettable exploration of Spain’s cultural and political history through the lens of its iconic Copla music, practically unknown in England but deeply ingrained in Spanish heritage.

Discover the heart of Queer Spanish culture

Copla music, once wielded as a tool of resistance against repression—first under Franco’s dictatorship and later within Spanish LGBTQ communities—offers an authentic connection to Spain’s complex cultural landscape. These songs, filled with melodrama and passion, speak to the queer and migrant experiences in Spain’s early musicals and strike a chord with audiences who appreciate the powerful blend of diva theatrics, laughter, and heartfelt emotion.

Alejandro Postigo and the Spirit of La Gitana

Guided by queer migrant performer Alejandro Postigo (Miss Brexit), Copla: A Spanish Cabaret is an interactive journey that deconstructs traditional Spanish songs and unveils their significance for the queer community. As Postigo transforms into his alter ego La Gitana, he invites the audience into a dialogue that spans translation, the experience of living away from one’s homeland, and the negotiation of cultural identities. This cabaret is as much about storytelling and shared experience as it is about the music—expect live songs, moments of intimacy, and a drink in hand to toast the night away.

Don’t Miss This Limited Engagement

Join Alejandro Postigo and experience Copla: A Spanish Cabaret for an evening of laughter, music and cultural. Book your tickets today and prepare for a night that promises to be as bold and unforgettable as the Spanish spirit itself.

Copla: A Spanish Cabaret runs from 14-26 January 2025 at The Other Palace theatre, London.
