'Scene in black and white' is a series of seven chapters with interviews and performances by artists such as Pablo Alborán, Rozalén, David Bisbal or Vanesa Martín


Pablo Alborán, David Bisbal, Vanesa Martín, Pasión Vega, Rozalén and Pablo López are some of the protagonists of

Scene in Black and White

, a program directed and presented by Antonio Banderas and with the participation of María Casado, which can be seen before the end of the year on Amazon Prime Video.

This is the first project of Teatro Soho Televisión, the production company that the Malaga actor launched last spring with the Catalan journalist.

"We are creating a television space in search of excellence", explains Antonio Banderas, who wastes no time: last week he took the stage to present his next musical,

Company

, together with his company, just a few days after finishing the filming of the film

Official Competition

.

In mid-July, Banderas, Casado and David Bisbal uploaded images to social networks of their passage through the Caminito del Rey, a spectacular path along a platform attached to the rock.

The three were already in the middle of filming

Scene in Black and White

, which was shot over the summer at the Soho Theater itself.

The format of the seven chapters that make up the program is based on a presentation by Antonio Banderas himself, who will review the trajectories of the guests and the impact their music has had on society.

He himself advanced some keys last week, underlining that the monologues will talk "about what is essential and what is not" from the viewer's point of view.

"Viewers will be able to see something different, intimate interviews in a unique space that will make a difference", underlines Ricardo Cabornero, head of content for Amazon Prime Video in Spain.

The television space has interviews with María Casado "who seek to reveal the most personal side of musical stars," as explained from Amazon.

The protagonists, in turn, perform a live performance backed by the Malaga Symphony Orchestra, directed by Arturo Díez Boscovich, who also acts as the program's musical director.

The artists will also perform versions of their favorite singers.

The program has been recorded at the Soho Theater's own facilities, where the Goya gala will also be held next March, also presented by the tandem formed by Banderas and Casado.

"It will be different, shorter, more sober and elegant," said a few days ago the protagonist of

Pain and Glory

, a role for which he was nominated for the Oscars and for which he has received numerous awards.

The actor always thought of Teatro Soho Televisión as a long-term proposal that would accompany his theatrical project in Malaga.

However, during the confinement he decided to remove it from the drawer to start it up much earlier than expected.

As a visible face of the project, he opted for María Casado, who was already with one foot out of

La Mañana

since TVE announced that Mónica López would replace her in front of the morning.

After Banderas' call, the journalist didn't even think about it.

"I saw it clearly," he said then.

Now, with his first project about to come out of the oven, he confirms those feelings.

"It is the most beautiful television project I have ever worked on," says Casado.

"It was magical, a dream, a wonderful adventure," he insists.

This first program of the Antonio Banderas production company has allowed, as he himself explained, that the Soho Theater team continues to be active after the crisis in the performing arts derived from the health situation and that even forced him to present an ERTE during the alarm status.

Now, the scenic space has proposed a program for a season that aims to resume the theatrical activity with caution and in front of just 500 people as the maximum allowed capacity.

"We don't know how many months we can stay," said the theater's executive director, Aurora Rosales.

Meanwhile, Banderas has found in his production company a way to keep his project alive.
