The coup d'état of 1936 broke the dreams of a great of the population. For women, it meant the loss of all the rights that they got during the II Republic, but also the loss of the men that were part of their lives. The show recovers stories of that women that were incarcerated not because of their political ideas, but because they were others' daughters or wives. The play also vindicates the role of other activist, strong, brave women who dared to confront those that wanted them to remain silent. Llum Trencada recovers a part of history that seemed uninteresting, since it wasn't the main character's story, but of those secondary characters who, nevertheless, were object of such a revenge and a repression as harsh as the one exerted on their husbands, fathers, or sons.

Iguana Teatre is a production and distribution company founded at the end of 1985. Its main objective is to create shows aimed at a mainstream audience, always with the perspective of offering quality theatre in which different artistic manifestations converge, recovering its own and universal classics with a modern conception, as well as the continuous research of new theatrical lines.
Iguana Teatre has more than 35 years of history and 47 shows, ranging from classical authors such as Shakespeare, Chekhov, Molière or Wilde, to street theatre, without forgetting its own creations (collective or by the director Pere Fullana).
A characteristic feature of Iguana Teatre is, in the words of Damià Pons, professor and lecturer of contemporary Catalan literature at the UIB: a tense and dense lyricism, in the well-finished details, in the ability to know how to incite the audience to guess under the skin of each play a voice that speaks to them from deep inside.
The company is a limited company made up of three partners: Jordi Banal, Pere Fullana and Carles Molinet.
