WELCOME to our 18th Season!

¡SOMOS Lo Nuestro! |
|
Our Theatre...
Our Culture...! |
|
Each time a new season approaches, we wonder what will work best and what we need to bring it about. What do those who matter most to us – you, our friends – need or want to see? And so we reach this moment of launch with the unsinkable feeling that you and we need and miss the same thing: to feel and be a part of one, single area, one identity. You and we are the same; we, like you, want to reach the same goal, dream the same dreams… Thank you for being so close to us, for being with us, for choosing us and knowing that this is
OUR THEATER...
OUR CULTURE...!

From the first moment – as is well known – it was
Eve in control. But if any doubt remained, during a
most violent and war-torn époque, when all was
invasion, military, knights, armor and screams,
there appeared the soft, ethereal, sweet and blonde
Lady Godiva. And although it wasn’t admitted at the
time, She knew what to do. And so history continued
till today, when we must again remember and call
on... KICK-BUTT WOMEN!

Two women meet casually. Nothing unites them
... except the same lover. Who stays with him?
In a brilliant comic flash that has little to do with the lover, both end up happy. A fun-filled comedy,
brimming over with humor and enchantment: the seal of Good Theater. |
