Two couples who have been friends all their lives meet up to try an escape room in El Cabanyal, a district of Valencia where the dismembered body of a man has recently been found in a rubbish container. They expect an entertaining hour of puzzles, but as soon as the door seals shut and the countdown begins, strange things start to happen. Getting out will not be easy, and the game turns into a test of their friendship. Written by Joel Joan and Hèctor Claramunt, in a version directed by Xavi Mira, the play is a comedy with the pulse of a thriller, asking how people behave under extreme pressure and where the line between truth and lies runs inside a couple.
It is one of the biggest recent hits of the Spanish stage, with four seasons and more than 300,000 spectators in Madrid and Barcelona, produced by Olympia Metropolitana and Albena Teatre. Teatro Cuyás, on Calle Viera y Clavijo in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, turns its stage into that sealed room for the performance on Saturday 21 November 2026, which begins at 19:30 and lasts an hour and a half. Tickets range from 12 to 23 euros depending on the zone, and discounts are available.
