SynopsisMadness in Valencia , in a version by David Johnston, exploresthe thin divide between sanity and madness in a world where no one is quite what they appear to be. Peribañez and the Comendador of Ocaña , in a version by Nick Drake, is the tale of a brave peasant, bound to defend the honour of his beautiful wife against a tyrannical overlord intent on seducing her. With an introduction by Isabel Torres., Two of the finest comedies from a giant of Spanish theatre. Drawing on everything from street life to lives of the saints, Lope de Vega was a prolific and compelling writer who treated an enormous range of subjects, often mixing comedy with tragedy, much to the horror of the classicists.
