Playwright and theatre director.

Antonio morcillo lopez

I was born in Albacete (Spain) and there I began to act and write theatre. I wrote my first play, El Hacha (The Ax), for a local theatre company and it was published by Ñaque Editora in 1998. One year later, my second play, Los Carniceros (The Butchers), won the Marques de Bradomín Prize. That year I started  the studies in playwriting and directing theatre at the Institut del Teatre (Barcelona). During my studies, the Spanish Playwrights Association published three plays in one edition (2000).

My plays Despedida II (Farewell II), En experimentos con ratas (In experiments with rats) and Bangkok (Bangkok) have won the Spanish Society of Authors and Publishers Theatre Prize (SGAE) in 2001, 2008 and 2013. All published by Fundacion Autor. Anothers published plays are Días maravillosos (Wondeful days) by Hiru Editorial, 2004 and Firenze by Arola Editors, 2008.

Recently, my play Bangkok has been produced and staged in Barcelona and Madrid, http://cdn.mcu.es/espectaculo/bangkok/. July and November, 2015.

Now I have finished writing 2 new plays, Nacimiento (Birth) and Constanza, and I'm looking for the way to produce them and bring them to the stage.
