In Spain, in addition to having her own company, she participated in significant productions, such as Medea directed by Miguel Narros in 1984; "Así que pasen cinco años" by Federico García Lorca, in a version by the Centro Dramático Nacional (1989) and, with the same organization: La Gallarda (1992), by Rafael Alberti. Other productions to review were: La petenera, El Sur and Fedra. She was present at the opening gala of Seville Expo'92.
