" By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes... " (Act 4, Scene 1 Macbeth ). Set in a re-imagined 11th Century Scotland right after an unsuccessful uprising against King Duncan, our titular character, Macbeth, finds herself in the company of three spirits who prophesy that she shall be King hereafter.

But the arrival of Ericka, a new student with undeniable talent and beauty, captures the attention of the pageant recruiter—and Paulina’s hive-minded friends.

Basta de sentirte triste, poco atractiva porque tus curvas ya no son las mismas de cuando tenías 20 años. Llegó el momento de entregarte a tus años y abrazarlos completamente para sentirte perfecta tal y como eres: una mujer hermosa, valiente, inteligente, guerrera, llena de virtudes y por supuesto de defectos, como cualquier terrenal, con la diferencia, de que ahora estás consciente de ellos, los trabajas e intentas ser un mejor ser humano todos los días.

Y es que cuando las “tonas” nos entonamos, sabemos que todo es posible, solo que a veces nos hace falta ese empujoncito que nos lleva a reconciliarnos con nosotras mismas para entender que si nos equivocamos o no, estamos en el momento justo, en el tiempo perfecto, para rectificar y volver a intentarlo. “FelizmenteTonas”, el monólogo presentado por la periodista y empresaria colombiana, Lizzette Díaz, autora del libro “Felizmente 40tona”, quien después de cinco años de este lanzamiento, decidió enfrentar un nuevo reto, esta vez sobre las tablas, con este monólogo introspectivo, reflexivo, pero sobre todo, profundamente divertido.Read more
