Women's day
Hi,
Today I'd like to remind you of the importance of women in science. Why not visiting
Women Rock Science
I'd also like you to have a look at these documents in honour of the women who were part of the 27th Generation in Spain. Those were women who actively took part in the literary movement of the 1920's in Spain, but were never given credit.

Fragments of memory. Shards of poetry. Scattered relics of relationships.
Sarah Kane's starkly beautiful play threads together four frayed voices into a powerful tapestry of words.
English Theatre Madrid presents a dynamic new production of Crave. The company does justice to Kane's dark lyricism, while also showing the shafts of bleak humour that break through and illuminate this dark play of the soul.
Trozos de memoria. Fragmentos de poesía. Reliquias dispersas de relaciones.
La bella y rotunda obra de Sarah Kane ensarta cuatro voces deshilachadas en un poderoso tapiz de palabras.
English Theatre Madrid presenta una nueva y dinámica producción de Crave. La compañía hace justicia al lirismo oscuro de Kane, mientras que muestra las pinceladas de humor sombrío que rompen e iluminan esta oscura obra del alma.

A British Christmas tradition: the pantomime!
There’s an unusual British tradition that takes place every year at Christmas called the pantomime (often referred to as the “panto”). A pantomime is basically a Christmas theatre play that’s popular with both children and adults. If you ever find yourself in Britain around Christmas time, you should try to go to one. Here are 6 key elements of a typical pantomime.
If you're in Madrid on 9th to 11th December, come and watch a pantomime (a traditional Christmas play, with music, jokes and songs). You'll have a great time and really improve your English. Click here for tickets and more information!
