José Maya, the owner of the Pavón theater complains about the bad gesti

The owners of the Pavón Theater complain about the attitude of the Kamikaze company, and claim to have suffered defamations by this group. The lack of resources and the economic crisis has forced the company to say goodbye.



After almost five years of adventures on stage, at Pavón Theater the fateful moment has come to bring down the curtain. The artistic directors are Miguel del Arco and Israel Elejalde, and Aitor Tejada and Jordi Buxó are in charge of the management.

According to the company, the pandemic has aggravated their economic precariousness, forcing them to close the premises, to which they add the erratic management of public administrations, which have not provided them with any other type of space.

For Jose Maya, one of the owners (along with Amaya Curieses), the worst thing about this situation is that they have found out through the press, since none of the theater managers has dared to communicate the situation to them.

He claims to have a contract with them where the obligation to communicate his departure six months in advance is contemplated, in addition to having to receive compensation in case they terminate the contract, which was signed July 9, 2016, coming into force on August 1st of that same year.

Aitor Tejada, co-director of Pavón Kamikaze Theater, ensures that they are within the legal deadlines to communicate their progress of the space.

Although the theater is closed to the public, the owner is considering the possibility of reaching an agreement with them so that they continue to use the space as a rehearsal place for all the productions that are still pending to premiere in other theaters, although that would only happen in the event of that they gave in to give him the keys. In case of refusal, you are willing to continue passing them the relevant receipts.

In addition, he accuses them of “arrogant, arrogant and impertinent”. According to his statements, the relationship for four years has been painful for him, since he alleges that he has felt badly treated by them, that they have called the theater old and that it suffered significant deterioration, which he denies.

Despite this, the directors of the theater have referred in different press conferences to the deficiencies that the space suffered. In the month of January of the year 2019, Miguel del Arco (Cadena SER) publicly announced their complaints about Maya, especially about his inability to give the theater true essence to make it a theater of this century. In addition, it also emphasized his inability to know how to manage space.

Months before this statement, Aitor Tejada He had commented that the building looked quite improvable, and that the rent they paid was close to the 360.000 euros, amount to which the electricity and maintenance costs had to be added, which meant a plus of 140.000€. According to him, the theater was quite dilapidated, suffered from leaks and sudden power cuts so they did not feel that the space cost the amount of money that was being paid for it.

For his part, the businessman denies the accusations and brings to light all the improvements he has made in the space from the moment he rented the theater.

Among these reforms are devices that regulate the intensity of light from the spotlights to a value of 150.000€, the sound system, valued at 55.000€, a new appliance for heating together with air conditioning, valued at 250.000€, and a change he made to the shutters around a few 40.000€.

On several occasions he has alleged that he is the first interested in the theater being in good condition, since it is his main source of income, but he dislikes the bad accusations that are made about him, calling him a ‘chorizo’, among other adjectives pejoratives.

He also adds that the company owes him the rent for the months that go from April to December of the year 2020, and that the expenses of water and electricity consumption that were made during the first three years were paid in 2019.

Despite this situation, Maya He does not consider selling the theater even if he has a group of well-known actors interested in buying it for him, although if he does not receive an offer that is interesting enough, he will be the one who will raise the curtain in September.
