La estanquera de Vallecas is a play written by José Luis Alonso de Santos. It tells the story of two young delinquents, Leandro and Tocho, who rob a tobacco shop in the Vallecas neighborhood of Madrid. The shop owner, Justa, is a strong and determined woman who manages to outsmart the robbers and turn the situation around.
As the play unfolds, we see how Justa's intelligence and wit help her gain the upper hand over the two thieves. She uses her knowledge of the neighborhood and her quick thinking to outmaneuver them at every turn. Despite their initial bravado, Leandro and Tocho find themselves outmatched by the resourceful estanquera.
The play explores themes of class struggle, justice, and the resilience of the human spirit. Justa's character is a symbol of strength and determination in the face of adversity, and her actions challenge the audience to reconsider their assumptions about power and privilege. Through a series of twists and turns, La estanquera de Vallecas keeps the audience on the edge of their seats as they root for Justa to come out on top.
