In Girona in 1978, we premiered Una altra Fedra si us plau [Another Phaedra please], which is how Salvador Espriu entitled the dramatic adaptation of Phaedra that Núria Espert had asked him for almost two years previously. The Lliure wanted to contribute to the tribute being paid this year, during which we all remember the poet's work, with a reading and memento of this play that is so familiar that sometimes, in my memory, it seems as if we have already done it at the Lliure. Some of those of us who were there, with the help of those who kindly joined us for the evening, will remember, among fragments of our memories and the words of the poet, the play and the staging of Una altra Fedra si us plau.

The Lliure opens the season with this unique play - a memento of the performance, a tribute to a poet, and above all, an act of cultural transmission of intangible heritage.
Una altra Fedra, si us plau came about as the result of a request to Espriu by the company led by the actress Núria Espert. It premiered at the Teatre Municipal in Girona on 24 February 1978, and premiered in the Teatre Barcelona on 3 March of the same year. The cast of the Núria Espert Company, directed by Lluís Pasqual, included Núria Espert herself as Phaedra, Carmen Carbonell as Enone, Joan Sala as Theseus, Gabriel Renom as Hippolytus (at the Teatre Municipal in Girona) and Abel Folk (in the same role for the performances in Barcelona), Conchita Bardem as Magdalena Blasi, Lluís Torner as Pulcre Trompel·li, Nadala Batista in the role of Tecleta Marigó, Pawel Rouba and Joan Faneca as Thanatos, and Josep Bassal on the cello. Fabià Puigserver was responsible for the stage design and costumes, and Josep M. Arrizabalaga for the music.
