Teatro Amaya - Madrid (Madrid)
Doña Francisquita
From May 7 to 11
With music by Amadeo Vives and a libretto by Federico Romero and Guillermo Fernández-Shaw, this zarzuela is inspired by Lope de Vega's comedy *The Discreet Lover*. Premiered in 1923, it transports us to romantic Madrid, where Francisquita's love for Fernando sparks entanglements and jealous rivalries involving her father and the lively Aurora. Vives' music strikes a perfect balance between tradition and lyricism, crafting a delightful comedy of errors with rich musicality.
Duration: 2 hours and 10 minutes (including a 20-minute intermission).
