In its debut at Teatro El Nacional Sancor Seguros, the musical solidified itself as one of the great premieres of the season. With only four shows during its first week on the bill, the Club Media production became the second most-watched show according to the AADET ranking, reported Agencia Noticias Argentinas. The show marks Fer Dente's return to the stage. The director of 'Spring Awakening' steps into the shoes of Bobby, a charismatic character who carries the weight of one of the most common adult life crises: reaching 35 without a stable partner in a world designed for two. Through interpretations of classics, accompanied by an excellent live band, Fer Dente makes the audience empathize with that existential void that haunts him and that he hides from his friends, who try to advise him to get a woman. Although the story follows Bobby, the cast that accompanies him is simply spectacular. Alejandra Radano as Joanne, the protagonist's elegant friend, is in charge of providing the most climactic moments of the show. The other couples, Diego Jaraz (Larry), Laura Silva (Sarah), Hernán Kuttel (Harry), Vane Butera (Amy), Felipe Forastiere (Paul), Andrea Mango (Jenny), Sebastián Holz (David), Denisse Cotton (Susan), Sacha Bercovich (Peter), function as a mirror of the raw reality that couples live and the commitment that a relationship entails. Not knowing what he is looking for for his future, the thirty-something walks through three great women – Paz Gutiérrez (Kathy), Mariel Percossi (Marta), Martina Loyato (Abril) – with whom he tries to build a life, under the pressure of society and his friends. Under the scenographic gaze of Gonzalo Córdoba, inspired by mid-century modern, the work follows the labyrinth and limbo that is found inside Bobby's mind, while the live musicalization, under the musical direction of Damián Mahler, takes the spectator to live in their own flesh the protagonist's thoughts. Buenos Aires, January 16 (NA) – The renowned actor and theater director, Fer Dente, returns to the stage with Company, the Stephen Sondheim masterpiece that is a hit on Broadway.
