Alfonso Sastre
Alfonso Sastre (born February 20, 1926 in Madrid) is a Spanish playwright, essayist, and critic associated with the Generation of '36 movement. He was an outspoken critic of censorship during the reign of General Francisco Franco.

==Biography==
Alfonso Sastre was born into a typical middle-class family. He had three siblings (Aurora, Ana and Jose), and received a Catholic upbringing. He survived hunger and bombing during the Spanish Civil War and later received a degree from the Institute Cardinal Cisneros of Madrid. In 1943 he began a career as an aeronautical engineer, which he abandoned after fifteen days. By the end of the 1940s, he began producing existentialist works, either alone or with others in the "New Art" movement.
In 1950 he signed, along with Jose M. de Quinto, the Theater of Social Agitation Manifesto (TAS), and vehemently defended, through books and newspapers, the use of theater as a means of social agitation. In 1953 he completed his studies and had his first success in the theater, ''Escuadra Hacia la Muerte'', roughly translated as ''Death Squad''. It premiered on March 18, 1953, and was performed by the University Popular Theater (TPU). The play took place during the Third World War and dealt with a squad of five soldiers and their corporal, sent on a suicide mission as punishment for past transgressions. Only one performance was initially scheduled, but it found success and its run was extended. The play was censored by Franco's regime after its third performance, however, and was never performed again. On September 17, 1954, the play ''La Mordaza'' (''The Gag'') premiered, dealing with themes of dictatorship and repression. That same year he wrote the revolutionary drama ''Tierra Roja'' (''Red Earth''), which was never allowed to be presented as it dealt with the subject of exploitation. Sastre continued to write plays such as ''La Sangre de Dios, Ana Kleiber'' (''The Blood of God, Ana Kleiber'') and ''Guillermo Tell tiene los ojos tristes'' (''William Tell Has Sad Eyes'') in 1955. In 1959 he wrote ''En la red'' (''In the Net'') and ''La Cornada'' (The Thrust). In 1990 he wrote ''(¿Dónde estás, Ulalume, dónde estás? )'' (''(Where are you, Ulalume? Where are you? )'').
Sastre married writer and revolutionary Eva Forest in 1955.
