The actress, playwright and graduate in Hispanic Philology Alma García, (Manises), has always had a great passion for theater. He joined extracurricular theater activities and belonged to the Quart de Poblet theater group. Another of his passions was poetry. It was at the age of 14 that he began to develop anorexia nervosa and at 17 he was admitted to a clinic in Barcelona for a year and two months.
Once she left the clinic, although she continued her fight against eating disorders, she graduated in Theory and Practice of Dramatic Art at the TOTART Academy of Performing Arts in Valencia and continued her training as an actress at the Work in Progress acting school, directed by Darío Focal, in Madrid. It was while he was finishing a master’s degree that he had the opportunity to write his first play, It’s good that it was your land, Galdós. It was a commission that one of his teachers, José Gómez Friha, who had a Venice Theater company and had to create a work for the National Library, commissioned him, seeing his potential. And if there is one word that defines Alma, it is a creator, because from there she wrote the plays Non confeso (Festival Integracion das Artes de A Coruña), O retablo dos monstros (Fundación Miró, Mallorca) and “Contra Ana” (O contrario), which also tells the story of all those fellow inmates (and family members) who suffered from this disease or lived during those months. Alma García also has a degree in Hispanic Philology.
In cinema, she starred in the short film Una mira by Alberto Baldini, and we could also see her in the short films Doopled and Algo de malicia, as well as in the series Déjate ver.
