Joaquín Reyes Uses El Hormiguero Appearance to Launch ‘La Verdad’ Ahead of Madrid Premiere

He used the platform to reflect on how context can turn comedy risky.

Overview

  • The stage play ‘La Verdad’ is scheduled to open on 15 January at Madrid’s Teatro Infanta Isabel following Reyes’s on-air promotion.
  • Reyes recounted his worst show in Guadalajara, saying a spectator threw a sock at his face and the venue owner insulted him while paying him in cash.
  • He described a Tokyo monologue with Ernesto Sevilla where a planned Japanese rendition of a crude refrain was dropped at the director’s request, noting that humor varies by place.
  • Reyes admitted he once resubmitted an old article and said he was embarrassed when the mistake was caught.
  • Discussing honesty and relationships, he said he would rather not know about a one-time infidelity and answered that he would not host the Goya gala again.
