Synopsis
Frank Rich of the New York Times wrote, " Life's a Dream, the Calderón metaphysical masterpiece, is one of the finest fruits of the 17th-century golden age of Spanish drama... an ever pertinent play about the power of free will."  Calderón’s work is playfully re-imagined by one of DC’s most talented young actor/director featuring a company of his equally-respected peers.
