Synopsis:
The Culture Project, Maria del Puy Navarro Amador, in collaboration with Amnesty International USA, and in association with Francisco Reyes, present a special engagement of a pro-human rights theatrical event based on the classic Spanish play Life Is A Dream (La Vida es Sueño) by Calderón de la Barca with bilingual adaptation by Ms. Navarro Amador. This production finds its inspiration in Spain's Judge Baltasar Garzón, who is a specialist in the research of terrorism, crimes against humanity, and international organized crime. This revised version of Life Is A Dream (La Vida es Sueño), now set in the U.S., encompasses the plight of the Latin American emigrant. Originally published around 1636, the play tells the story of a Polish king whose son, Segismundo, was declared dead at birth because it had been prophesied that he would bring disaster to the country. Imprisoned all his life, the son reaches adulthood, and the King reveals that he is alive. With the court's approval, the King wants to declare Segismundo the heir to the throne. However, upon his release from prison, Segismundo turns violent killing a man and attempts rape. He is returned to prison where he is drugged, told that it was all a dream and is made to repent for his bad behavior by his Jailor. Rebels free the remorseful Segismundo who defeats the King's army causing him to doubt if he is in a reality or a dream. Segismundo's brutal transition from imprisonment to power makes him realize the ephemeral and fragile essence of life, concluding that good works are all that matter and constitute our legacy.
