Matadero Madrid center for contemporary creation
Camerino
This installation in Pepe Show will allow us to glimpse inside those fascinating roulottes of the great actresses of the 1920s and 30s. Located in the Naves Café, visitors will be able to explore the Pepe Show caravan, converted for the occasion into that magical place where actresses would dress, apply their make-up and get ready to go on stage. The dressing room is where the magic of a character is created, where actors and actresses would receive guests after the performance. In the dressing room, we will find the wardrobe chests, the dressing table with make-up, the famous mirror with lights and all the ritual elements that a grande dame of the stage needs if she is to face her audience. The technical team of the Teatro Español and the Naves has devised and created a highly evocative space full of fantasy that will take us back to that golden age of cinema and theatre.
