Biography
Llopis was born in Madrid. His parents were actors. He came from the same generation as Miguel Mihura and Enrique Jardiel Poncela. Known for original insights and agile dialogues, the tone he cultivated was one of sophisticated bourgeois comedy. The dramatist-critic Alfredo Marquerie described his style as halfway between Arniches and Jardiel. Although he was less celebrated by critics than some of his contemporaries, in his own day many of his dramas were received with much acclaim by theatre audiences.
His more memorable pieces included:
Some of these were adapted as films.
Llopis also wrote libretti for several Revues, including La cuarta de A. Polo (1951) and Oriente y accidente (1952) for the comic trio Zori, Santos y Codeso.
