Everything you need to know about Rodolfo Beban
Rodolfo Beban, the son of famed actor Miguel Beban, was born on May 25, 1938. Despite this, Beban grew up in a household where no one was permitted to pursue a profession in acting. This was largely due to his mother’s admission that theater had wrecked her marriage. As a consequence, Beban made the decision to become an aviation pilot. However, when driving by the Moron Municipal Theater with a friend one day, he saw a banner that stated, “Extras required for Fuenteovejuna.” He started out as an extra before being cast as the lead in a play called Musica en la noche. Following that, he began taking theatrical courses.
He finally rose to prominence as a result of his many theatrical performances. He played the lead in many shows, including The Strange Couple, Let’s Live a Dream, The Butterflies Are Free, and Diario de un Loco, which was directed by his father.
