El Agua De Valencia

About

El agua de Valencia stages the adventures of a young Lope de Vega exiled in Valencia around 1590. It is a cape-and-sword musical comedy that blends imagined episodes, poetic jousts, duels, love triangles, encounters with nobility, and even pirate attacks. The piece combines verse and prose, live music, and choreography, using a corral/corrala/Italian-style staging device. It is presented as a contemporary reimagining of the Spanish Golden Age, offering a fresh perspective on the period.
