Synopsis
Quick, get on! The ship is about to set sail for the Indies. On the other side, a thousand adventures await us, unexplored lands, cities on water and unknown seas.
An exciting show, with a daring stage bet, with which we play to discover the Pacific with Vasco Núñez de Balboa, get to know Tenochtitlán with Hernán Cortés, live with Francisco Pizarro the hardships suffered by the Thirteen of Fame, find water in the Atacama Desert led by Inés Suárez or witness the founding of Santiago de Chile with Pedro de Valdivia among other historical events…

Criticism
Conquistadores mantiene un ritmo trepidante desde el inicio… El escenario es espartano, minimalista en extremo. Pero nada más necesitan los tres actores en estado de gracia para representar a los diversos personajes… bajo la certera dirección de Pedro L. López Bellot.
