Life's a Dream

Directed by Christiane Hill

Designed by Zoe Diderich

Incarcerated since birth. four walls, bars, chains. One day, Sigismund wakes - silk sheets, sun on his face, servants who call him 'highness'. A dream, or a cruel joke? Vengeance, rape, war, love triangles, and our perception of reality are brilliantly explored in Calderon's masterpiece of the Spanish Age.

"Life's a Dream is one of the finest metaphysical fruits of the 17th century Golden Age of Spanish drama. An ever pertinent pre- Freudian revery about the power of free will." New York Times
