Porrúa is to host the opening of “Awards Week” with the screening of “Mamma mia!” In tribute to Meryl Streep, 2023 Princess of Asturias Laureate for the Arts
Prior to the screening, there will be a musical performance by a group inspired by Donna & the Dynamos from the film.
The event will take place on Tuesday 10th October.
The Princess of Asturias Foundation will open the “Awards Week” events in Porrúa (Llanes) on 10th October with the screening of the film Mamma Mía! starring Meryl Streep, 2023 Princess of Asturias Laureate for the Arts. The screening will take place in the Llacín Cultural Centre Hall at 8:00pm.
Previously, there will be a musical performance by a group based on Donna & the Dynamos at the village’s skittle alley in tribute to the character played by the American actress in the film where she leads a band of women inspired by the group ABBA. Furthermore, there will be props and costumes available for taking photographs, as well as a light-painting area (a photographic technique in which lines, objects or scenes can be drawn on a snapshot through the use of lights).
In addition to the Foundation’s commitment to the rural world, reflected in the granting of the Exemplary Town of Asturias Award and the Annual Meeting of Exemplary Towns, the choice of Porrúa is motivated by the forthcoming coming of age of Her Royal Highness The Princess of Asturias, born in 2005, the year in which this village in to the Borough of Llanes received the aforementioned award.
Admission will be free until all seats are taken.
