DON JAUME EL CONQUISTADOR - POLLENSA

Were it not for the fact that this in Catalan, it sounds like great entertainment. Still maybe even if you don't know the lingo...

Friday, 26 September: The "Juglares del Reino de Mallorca" (minstrels - or players - of the kingdom of Mallorca) will perform the musical reading and drama of the comic history "Don Jaume el Conquistador". Dating back to the 1860s, this work was performed in 1978 in Barcelona, about which it was said that it was: "dirty, erotic, scatological, rude, irreverent, obscene, stupid, vulgar, offensive and scandalous". Sounds fantastic. Don Jaume, by the way, is King Jaume I, the great liberator of Mallorca.
Place: Cloister of Saint Domingo, Pollensa. Time: 21:00.
