Calderon's Life is a Dream, A New Vintage

In the deep recesses of a childlike mind, the world of Claderon's timeless classic comes to life. This new adaptation written by Annie R. Such (renowned international and award-winning playwright) and brilliantly conceived by director Christina Ashby clouds the realm of reality, illuminating the story of Segismundo, the damned prince destined to change his stars.

This production reinvigorates the five hundred year old Masterpiece by Calderon de la Barca within the confines of a dusty attic, where the lonely Segismundo grows into the King he longs to be, out of the animal he's become.

Giacomo Rocchini (renowned performance in LaMama's Hamlet Hallucinations) as Segismundo
