Complex subjects, like greed, betrayal, usury, wealth and the hatred between cultures, are illustrated on stage.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All these themes become intertwined and this causes both comic and tragic moments, pretty much as in life itself. You can see the play at Versus Gl\u00f2ries in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/barcelona-rent\/sant-marti\/poblenou?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=theatre-barcelona-2019&amp;utm_campaign=silo-poblenou\" class=\"broken_link\" rel=\"nofollow\"><strong>neighbourhood of<\/strong> <strong>Poblenou<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pel_davant_i_pel_darrera\"><\/span>Pel davant i pel darrera<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One of Barcelona&#8217;s best plays returns: Pel davant i pel darrera.
