Prior to the gala, Governor Orrego spoke with the media and assured that “we are on the eve of May 25, which is a day that marked all Argentines. It was a day in which freedom was shouted.”
Regarding the work, Orrego assured that “Argentine Women with artists who are clearly from San Juan, we have a lot of talent. The actors and artists we have are extraordinary. Wherever our artists went, they represented us very well.”
Finally, he said that he took his first gala as governor with responsibility and humility. “It is a day that must serve to remember the values of what happened on May 25. We have to value those men and women who fought so that independence can be declared and today we Argentines can enjoy our homeland.” .
More than three thousand people had the privilege of enjoying “Mujeres Argentinas”, an iconic work by Ariel Ramírez and Félix Luna. This staging, directed by Alexis Mirenda, featured a cast of talented dancers and a team of stage professionals who provided a unique experience. The participation of La Camerata and the outstanding voices of Eli Domínguez and Melisa Quiroga added a special touch to the evening, which culminated with the interpretation of the Argentine National Anthem by Laura Costanza.
Due to the success of the functions scheduled for May 23 and 24, the Provincial Government, through the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sports, decided to add an unprecedented third function that took place last Wednesday, May 22.
The public of San Juan filled the main hall of the Bicentennial Theater during the three days. “Mujeres Argentinas” not only celebrated the country’s rich history and culture, but also paid tribute to the women who left an indelible mark on the history of this country.
