In ASTUCIAS POR HEREDAR…, Don Lucas is the elderly, archetypal, provincial courtier and his faithful servant, Lucía, and her cohort Crispín, employ trickery and deceit in an attempt to inherit his wealth when he passes. Social satire on class clashes and poetic language form this rich piece of literature and theatre history. Director Robi Arce states: "In the play of passions, power, hunger and scheming, these characters will have us laughing at their situations but also at ourselves. Throughout history, the world has lost too many valuable things during censorships, but one thing remained... humanity!"

Censored in the late 18th Century by the Catholic Church, ASTUCIAS POR HEREDAR UN SOBRINO A UN TÍO (Tricks to Inherit: A Nephew from his Uncle) was the first play ever performed by Hispanic settlers in Central California where the original manuscript was preserved in the Santa Cruz/Monterey area. The original is now in the Bancroft Library at the University of Berkeley and the critical annotated edition by Dr. Pedro García-Caro of the University of Oregon was published in 2016 by Arte Publico Press (Houston.) This will be the play's first production in over 200 years, presented in masterful commedia dell'arte style by director Robi Arce and a superb cast in the original Spanish verse with English supertitles.
