The Tenerife Auditorium's La Salita theater will host two family-friendly, Shakespeare-inspired shows by Argentine company Criolla, Sueño and Romeo y Julieta de bolsillo, from Thursday through Sunday.

The Tenerife Auditorium's La Salita theater will host two family-friendly shows by the Argentine company Criolla, inspired by William Shakespeare. These performances, which also include educational shows during the week, will run from Thursday through Sunday.

The first show, Sueño, will be performed on Thursday, followed by a discussion, and again on Saturday. Both performances start at 7:30 PM.

The second show, Romeo y Julieta de bolsillo, can be seen on Friday at 7:30 PM, also with a post-show discussion, and on Sunday at 12:00 PM.

Sueño is a loose adaptation of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. It features four performers who gather in a forest to rehearse a play, unaware that the forest is full of magical beings ready to playfully interfere with their emotions.

Romeo y Julieta de bolsillo begins with two professors attempting to give a master class on Shakespeare. Their biggest challenge arises when they try to decide whether Romeo and Juliet has a happy or tragic ending.
