HISPANIC GOLDEN AGE CLASSICS
DON QUIXOTE
SEPTEMBER & OCTOBER 2023
Presented in collaboration with Repertorio Español and Diversifying the Classics | UCLA. A Hispanic Classic in a world premiere English translation, based on the same episode of Cervantes’s novel as the lost Fletcher/Shakespeare work Cardenio.
The Hispanic Golden Age offers one of the most vibrant theatrical repertoires ever produced. At the same time that England saw the flourishing of Shakespeare on the Elizabethan and Jacobean stage and in the decades that followed, Spanish-speaking playwrights including Lope de Vega, Tirso de Molina, Ana Caro, Sor Juana, and Calderón de la Barca flourished on the continent and in the New World. Many of the works created during this time have still not been translated into English.
