La Vida es Sueno

A devised work adapted from the play by Pedro Calderon de la Barca

Directed by Peter Farbridge

A new dramatic score inspired by scenes, monologues, and visual images from Pedro Calderón de la Barcas 17th century masterpiece. In the age of the AI deep fakes, when we have the ability to replicate anyone doing and saying almost anything we want, we might soon have to ask ourselves if the events we witness online are real, or an illusion designed to entrap us. La vida es sueño (Life is a Dream), Pedro Calderón de la Barcas master work from the Spanish Golden Age explores the nature of dream versus reality, and offers a troubling vision of humanitys violent destiny. This new adaptation will ask the question: Is humankind yoked to inevitable destruction, or is there a new dream out there that could free us from the cycle of violence?
