Estudio 1

Estudio 1 was a long-running Spanish television anthology series by Televisión Española presenting many classic plays for the home audience since 1965. It was equivalent to Au théâtre ce soir [fr] (1966–1985) on TF1 and Play of the Month (1965–1983) on the BBC.^[1] The series was noted for its productions of the great Spanish Golden Age playwrights as well as Shakespeare^[2] and Schiller.^[3]

It took its name from the studio it was filmed, Studio 1 at Prado del Rey. In its best times, one or two performances were broadcast daily (in the mid-afternoon and at evening), most of them live.
