What could go wrong when hiring an identical lookalike to test your partner? Tangled situations and misunderstandings take over the stage in Ripollet for an entertaining theater evening. 🎭

📖 A plot of suspicion, impersonations, and mix-ups

Arnau suspects his wife, Mariona, is having an affair with Oriol, the real estate agent finding them an apartment. When he meets Tomàs, an amateur actor identical to the agent, he decides to hire him to pose as Oriol during dinner and verify whether his suspicions are justified.

It seems like a brilliant idea until the real estate agent, his hired double, and the double's twin brother—a plumber arriving to fix an unexpected leak—cross paths. Three identical men and a nosy neighbor trigger utter hilarity where the initial plan quickly turns inside out.

🎭 Direction, cast, and production

Directed by Xavier Ricart, the production features performances by Susanna Garachana, Xavi Mira, Lluís Villanueva, and Anna Azcona. The performance is included in Programa.cat, an initiative promoted by the Departament de Cultura de la Generalitat de Catalunya alongside the Provincial Councils of Barcelona, Girona, Lleida, and Tarragona.

✨ A witty comedy of double identities where nothing unfolds as expected.
