Goyo Jiménez presents: 'Misery Class'

How could we sum up a show like Misery Class? And what is more complicated... How could we do it in less than 350 words considering, on the one hand, the wide number of current issues and subjects that are reviewed in this show and, on the other, the psychotic propensity to ramble about Goyo Jiménez?

Well... To begin with, we could not use the plural, we could, taking into account that this synopsis is being written by a single person. That is, me. That is, Goyo Jiménez. Yes, the same person about whom you just said that he has a “psychotic propensity to ramble” and who, therefore, is reading what you write, majete. But, look, maybe you've hit the nail on the head and that's what really needs to be highlighted when summarizing Misery Class. We could point out that this new show by Goyo Jiménez arises from his vision of the world as a PERSON and not as a CHARACTER. Because yes, friends: Dazzled by the immense artist and creator that we all enjoy to the point of ecstasy, blinded by the overflowing genius of the scene that we celebrate with joyful cheers, we often forget that, inside Goyo Jiménez, or That is, inside me, there lives a PERSON, that is, me. A simple person, too. Who contemplates the astonishing panorama of our times with the same amazement and bewilderment as most OTHER PEOPLE, but who offers ingenious and hilarious solutions that will help us look to the future with optimism. An empathetic person, who puts himself in the shoes of others with the greatest humility, respecting and considering everyone equally, even those who are less. Which would be the majority. One of ours, come on. Someone like anyone, like you or me. Well, like I don't. That I am different. I mean, Goyo Jiménez, I mean. And there have always been classes, creature.
