From the 15th to the 19th of March arrives at the Theater Lope de Vega of Seville the play ‘The dog in the manger’, a comedy written by Lope de Vega between 1613 and 1618.
THE DOG IN THE MANGER.
The Countess Diana, who is the “dog” referred to in the title of the work, does not allow herself to fall in love with her secretary Theodore, but she does not allow either Theodore loves Marcela, one of her company ladies.
She belongs to the high aristocracy, and he is only her servant, so they see themselves in the middle of the eternal conflict between the desire for freedom and the bonds imposed by fate. Diana cannot choose because she is at the top of the social pyramid, but Theodore dares defy fate to become the earl of Belflor and get Diana’s love, even if he could lose his life on the way.
Tender, funny, dark, vibrant, aristocratic, this comedy catches us from the first moment we see Diana struggling awkwardly out of the gold prison in which she has been locked up.
