Abstract

In the 1920s and 1930s in Spain, several authors expressed their admiration for cartoons in their literary texts. Among the works that were inspired by these films, the children’s theatre piece El Carbón y la Rosa (1935), which Concha Méndez published in Madrid, stands out. Besides that, the writer made explicit the link of this text with Walt Disney’s animated films and the influence of the short films that belong to the Silly Symphonies can be seen in it. For this reason, this work aims to analyze how Méndez was inspired by them to create a theatrical play full of color, music and an anthropomorphic nature with the aim to wonder children.
