By Lope de Vega (Spain) Version by Juan Mayorga Directed by José Luis Arellano U.S. PREMIERE | In Spanish with English surtitles Fuenteovejuna stands as a resonant exploration of the people’s right to rise against tyranny and oppression. Written in 1613 and based on historical events, the play tells the story of the villagers of Fuenteovejuna, who suffer under the brutal rule of a corrupt and arrogant commander. Driven to the breaking point, the citizens led by women discover strength in unity and seize power. This stirring tale of collective resistance against abuse of power remains as relevant today as it was over four centuries ago, resonating deeply with modern audiences.
GALA Hispanic Theatre is at 3333 14th Street NW, Washington, DC 20010, Washington, DC.
