SMILEY   

Nov 12-16th

CC AMSTEL THEATRE

by Guillem Clua 

Alex is the sexy co-owner of a gay bar in Barcelona. But his good looks and gym-honed body haven’t led yet to the love of his life. Cue Bruno, a non-scene architect, who meets Alex after their phone wires get crossed. Though at first glance not a match, the sexual attraction is riveting. This sexy and humorous rom-com looks at city life, dating apps and modern romance. A popular success on NETFLIX, you can now experience it close up,  in these immersive, live performances that whisk you away to Barcelona and all its attractions. QETC's Smiley returns after an acclaimed run in 2023. 


Booking opens soon.
