The Grec begins with a call to theatre for the people

Source Summary

Perhaps because it's our anniversary, the Teatre Grec Gardens are buzzing with people and activity, even though it's just past seven in the evening. It's one of the summer's big events and everyone wants to enjoy it and talk about it. The heat doesn't make it easy (shadows are highly sought after, hats and fans, at full speed), but the collective enthusiasm overcomes everything. The ducks quack contentedly – and will do so even more during the night – from the pond that welcomes one of Barcelona's most emblematic spaces. "At least they're in the water," says a woman to the man accompanying her, who follows her carrying two glasses full to the brim.
