CINEMA IN A SUITCASE
Pepe Nufrío
Nufrio, widely known for La Moderna, where
he discovered the demanding nature of filming
a daily series and explored new facets as an
actor. He has also taken on iconic roles in
productions such as Jesus Christ Superstar,
Where Words Die, and Into the Woods
What does this project mean to you?
Being part of something bigger than yourself,
like Cabaret, is something truly special, exci-
ting, and complex. I have to play Cliff, who is
present in almost every scene.
What is this Cabaret of the year 2025 like?
In today’s context, Cabaret holds a very im-
portant place, because if time has taught us
anything, it’s that history repeats itself. It’s
good for people to see the reality that was li-
ved in the past and how much it resembles the
present. That’s why I’m preparing by revisiting
Germany’s history from that period.

Did you ever imagine yourself playing
Sally Bowles?
“Art is, should be, and will always be re-
sistance.”
It came to me at a moment when this role
means a lot.
For my career, I face this character from
a place of professional maturity. For Sa-
lly, I have to build strong vocal stamina.
She is a character who lives in a cons-
tant contradiction, she is very vulnera-
ble, and wears a mask to protect herself
from the world. The challenge is making
people realise when I’m pretending so I
don’t fall apart.
How are you experiencing this pro-
ject?
The Kit Kat Klub we are going to create is
both a form of resistance and a warning,
in relation to the current situation.
