Get a FREE ticket to see the Saturday October 10 7pm showing of La Dama Boba!

La Dama Boba, a 400 year-old masterpiece from Spain’s Golden Age, is a wry, gender-defying comedy about two sisters engaged to marry but in love with the same man; one sister is educated and the other, silly. To compensate for her simpleness, the Lady "Simpleton" has the larger dowry which attracts the attention of her sister's fiancé, a poor nobleman. When the two suitors arrange to exchange prospective wives, chaos prevails. Yet the "silly" lady turns out not to be so simple after all. Lope de Vega is one of Spain’s most prolific writers. He is only second to Cervantes in his importance during the Golden Age of Spanish literature.

The play is performed in Spanish, with English translation simulcast supertitles.
