My kid doesn't speak Spanish. Will they follow it?

The show is in Spanish, but magic is visual and the story is simple: a grandpa, a grandson stuck on his phone, and an old trunk full of games. Most kids follow the tricks without the words.

Can I bring my 3-year-old?

The organizer recommends it from age 4. It runs an hour, so a younger sibling who can sit through a full show should be fine.

La Chistera Producciones, with actor, director and playwright Fernando Jiménez. It is part of the Moncloa-Aravaca district council's family program at the Centro Cultural Julio Cortázar.

About

A magic show built around an old trunk. A grandfather, bored because his grandson spends all day on his phone, opens it and brings out the games of his own grandparents' time, when toys were not bought but made from whatever was at hand. It suits kids who like tricks with a story, and it is a good one to bring a grandparent to.
