Itinerary

1. Baluarte de Santo Domingo

The actress who plays the girl "Cartagena", host of the route, enthusiastically welcomes the adventurers and shares in a playful way the golden rules of the trip, such as keeping the group together and not throwing trash. At that moment, the actor in the role of the colony’s military engineer, Bautista Antonelli, bursts onto the scene, who explains with authority the strategic importance of having designed these walls to defend the city from fierce pirate attacks. Finally, to connect the story with the action, both actors activate the audience by challenging them to search for a "treasure" or hidden object in the stronghold, whose clue will be the key needed to advance to the next point of the tour.

Duration: 30 mins

2. Baluarte de Santa Cruz

As we move along our route, the story rises. In this imposing bulwark, Cartagena’s personifications and the illustrious military engineer Bautista Antonelli come face to face with the feared Sir Francis Drake. In this vibrant theatre scene, you will travel back to the past to witness the tension of the moment and discover, through acting, the fascinating details of the infamous looting that marked the walled city.

At this point, visitors are engulfed by the gripping tales of the great Baptist engineer Antonelli, who reveals firsthand the mysteries behind the construction of this imposing stretch of the wall and its connection to other great events in the city. But the historical tranquillity is short-lived: in a surprise theatrical twist, the fearsome privateer Sir Francis Drake abruptly bursts onto the scene. With his imposing presence, the pirate takes over, daring the adventurers to follow him and dragging them to our next destination.

Inside, the barrier between audience and actors disappears in a fun stage game to recreate the Battle of San Juan.
