Description

THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO. 2014 VERSION AND ADAPTATION
Premiered in 2014, this version of The Count of Monte Cristo remains on stage with the maturity of time and the same strength with which it began its journey.

THE TIME FOR REVENGE HAS COME

With absolute respect for the immortal novel by Alexandre Dumas and Auguste Maquet, Paloma Mejía adapts and stages one of the greatest adventure novels ever written.

Inspired by a real case documented by Jacques Peuchet, this story has fascinated millions of readers for generations. Since the 2014 premiere of Paloma Mejía's version and stage adaptation, the major conflicts of the masterpiece—the injustice, revenge, and their cost—remain the driving force that attracts today's audiences.

Betrayed by those he trusted most, unjustly condemned, and imprisoned for years in a jail no one manages to escape from. Thus begins the story of Edmond Dantès, a man who lost everything... except hope.

A tale of love, betrayal, power, redemption, and hope that has captivated the world for almost two centuries and that you can now experience with the full power of theatre.
