Life is a Dream by Pedro Caldern De La Barca

A masterpiece of the Spanish Golden Age, in an English version by John Clifford.

'The star of the festival… John Clifford's translation reclaims a Spanish masterpiece for the modern stage'

* Guardian *
Pedro Calderón (1600–1681) was a Spanish dramatist, poet, and writer. He is recognised as one of the greatest Spanish playwrights of the golden age. Jo Clifford (formerly known as John Clifford) is an award-winning playwright, translator, poet and performer, who has also worked as a journalist and academic. She was instrumental in establishing the reputation of the Traverse Theatre Company in the 1980s. She is the author of about eighty plays, many of which have been performed all over the world. They include: Losing Venice, Every One, Faust and The Tree of Knowledge. Her adaptation of Charles Dickens's Great Expectations makes her the first openly transgendered woman playwright to have had a play on in London’s West End.
