“The Government Inspector” Play. 13.11.24

Location: Palma

The Principal theater will show the satirical comedy “The Government Inspector” based on the same named play by N.V. Gogol, themed around exposing the vices of society, all in a modernised interpretation of Miguel del Arco.

The premiere of “The Government Inspector” took place in 1836 in Saint-Petersburg.

According to the script of Miguel del Arco ‘s production, a provincial town receives a notice that the central government has sent a tax inspector who can arrive incognito at any given moment. These news launch the mayor and all the officials around him, all of whom are dishonest about public affairs, into a state of panic. And from the moment of the Inspector’s arrival, the true faces of all the characters will be revealed to the audience.

This play, a modern adaptation directed by Miguel del Arco, gives a view on the lies and the evil that still reign among officials today.
