Monologue: Pictures with different cultural events. What is your favourite one? What kind of cultural activities do you practise? And cultural activities in your city.

Good afternoon. I've been asked to talk about different cultural activities and which ones take place in my city.

To start with I'm going to describe the pictures. In the first picture we can see a person looking at a painting. I only perceive the back of this person and the image he or she is looking at seems to be a modern painting. I may say that this person is in a museum or in a gallery.

In the second picture there is a couple dancing. I think they are doing and exhibition of modern dancing because I can see they are on a stage and they both are wearing black clothes which is typically used in this type of dance.

And eventually in the third image I can see two people, one who is playing an electrical guitar and the other who is holding a microphone and it is likely that he is singing because he has his mouth open. As in the second picture, they both are on the stage, a small one. That's why I think they are offering a gig to a friends or a small audience.

As to my preferences within these cultural activities, my favourite one is the gig. When I was a student I used to attend to this type of premises with small stage and I really loved them. But now unfortunately I don't attend to any gig. I've recently been a proud parent of two little children and all my leisure time is absorbed by them. 

Another activity I miss a lot is to go to cinema. I love all type of movies, even though my favourite ones are science fiction movies. 

On the other hand and regarding cultural events in my city, I live in a small town in the south of Spain. We can't enjoy as many cultural events as if we lived in a big city. The most important event takes place in August, and it is held in honor of our Lady "Virgen del Mar". This is a general event which includes other minor events, like parades, speeches and so on. Another significant event is a film festival dedicated to western movies. Besides we have cinemas a small number of museums.
