description This work will be about the play Breakfast at Daddy's, by Beatriz Cabur, a proposal about abortion, as well as the insertion of the piece in the current theater written by Spanish women playwrights. Beatriz Cabur is probably one of the most interesting phenomena in international theater. Sheis a Spanish Playwright who lives in London, which gives her the necessary distance to commit touniversal issues.Although most of her work is written in English and released outside of Spain, I consider Cabur in theSpanish dramaturgy written by women, specifically, within the feminist theme. On the other hand, it should be noted that the issue of abortion is not predominant in Spanish theater, although it can be related to the demystification of motherhood. My proposal is to investigate in the theatrical treatment of this controversial topic, how its dramatic and scenic elaboration serves the author's purposes.The abortion theme inBreakfast at Daddy'sis dramatized to bring to the table the prejudices and false myths that surround all the preventions regarding this issue that, in the 21st century, remains taboo, despite being a central issue for the life and the freedom of women.In conclusion, Beatriz Cabur is a Spanish playwright who has developed her career internationally. In this context, Breakfast at Daddy'sdeals with abortion from the point of view of women and their freedom to decide, thus uncovering the hypocritical and illusory permissiveness of society
