In
2010, Las Veredas’ theater group premiered their version of the musical
Superjim, which had been commissioned two years earlier by the English
writers Steve Pogson and George Simmers. After a long process of
translating and adapting the script, elaborating the musical
arrangements, scenery, props, and after performing it at the Civic
Center of Colmenarejo, we participated in the school theater contest
held by the Community of Madrid. Despite this being our first year
participating in the contest, we were declared the winners. The
production of Superjim would not have been possible without the help and
support of the faculty at Las Veredas primary school, the students’
families, and most of, Rafael Roselló, who was in charge of the
theatrical component, and Primi Palacios, who was in charge of all the
scenery and props. You can watch the performance below, which is divided
into four 15-minute segments.
