Falleros know how to adapt to the changes at the world of fallas, like authentic chameleons.
While they let them swell the chest with vanity , because prefer disappear, rather than merging with another falla.
At the beginning fallas were dedicated to San Jose, patron saint of the carpenters; today to the Virgin of the Offering, that shines more. Before the commissions survived with the lottery and the quotas of the falleros, today with partners, sponsoring, honour falleros, federations and holdings.
Before the boys dressed black cockroach and the falleras as they wanted and they could, today is compulsory to pass through the hoop of the industry of the clothing. Before falleras traditions existed: cant of l'storeta, apuntá: today missing.
80 years ago there were only 30 commissions, today there are 380 with 100,000 falleros, without counting the anti-falleros. Before with president, treasurer and greater fallera were enough, today more directive and advisory positions exist in the commission that in a ministry.
Politicians before underwent the satire of the fallas, today enjoy the populism of appearing in a falla.
"Of the fallas and its evolution we spoke this year in the cataphalque, since the question has a lot to tell. Always changing like a chameleon, we will find the celebration of the faults that today is green like a melon".
"Wild Crida. That Rita do not jump, begs all the falleros, because today the mayoress have lost all the papers. A spectacle that none never has been present, that Rita do not jump the falleros have not demanded".
"<-------- Fallera catwalk. An historical preselection is going to take place, that they tell the jury what they must fail. From most distant of the ancient times, to choose the Greater Fallera, they have to make thousand barbarisms".
"--------> Education for the good fallero. A new model of fallera "kidding" cut is inventing vice-president Begoña.Will not bother again, says vice".
"The police Maroto wants to catch to those of the motorcycle and as he is too potbellied, a knot is done to him in the throat. And as he is annoyed because they goad him without horns, the little animal has fined an artist who makes fallas".
