The father-daughter duo is all set to mesmerize audiences with a Spanish language rendition of the acclaimed Broadway musical 'Company,' marking a poignant moment of family collaboration and creative brilliance."

As reported by Reuters, Antonio Banderas has transformed his hometown of Malaga into a cultural hub, giving life to the Teatro del Soho theatre. His vision for a non-profit center dedicated to promoting performing arts has been met with success, but the COVID-19 pandemic brought a temporary halt to the venue's activities.

The Spanish language adaptation of Stephen Sondheim's Tony Award-winning musical is a first for Spain, and the actor-director is determined to bring it to life with a modern twist.

Stella Banderas - A Key Figure in the MakingStella Banderas, the multi-talented daughter of Antonio, plays a pivotal role in the upcoming musical as the second assistant director. A talented creative force herself, her honest feedback and input have proven invaluable to her father's creative process.

"When we walk home after rehearsals is when she really does her work," Antonio Banderas revealed, highlighting the significance of Stella's role. "When we're at home maybe having dinner is when I ask her very direct questions and that's when I get very direct answers about what she's seeing," he added, emphasizing the depth of trust he places in her artistic judgment.

"Company" has never been performed in Spanish before, making this adaptation a highly anticipated event for theatre enthusiasts in Spain. Banderas's reinterpretation of the musical promises to captivate audiences, offering a unique narrative that moves through sketches and a central character's reflections on life, friendship, and commitments.

In recent years, Banderas's collaboration with Almodovar continued with the poignant "Pain and Glory," which earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor in 2020.

Now, the iconic actor is all set to return to his theatrical roots, guided by a passion for storytelling and a commitment to the performing arts.
