Event Details
Presented in Spanish with English supertitles Lope de Vega's El Perro del Hortelano (The Dog in the Manger) is a sparkling comedy of desire, jealousy, and power. Countess Diana of Belflor proudly guards her independence and rejects all noble suitors?until she discovers that her secretary, Teodoro, is in love with Marcela, one of her ladies-in-waiting. Caught between pride and passion, Diana launches a clever and dangerous game of manipulation, where words become weapons and love a contest of control. Witty, seductive, and sharply observed, this Spanish Golden Age classic explores the fine line between desire and refusal, revealing how love, ambition, and social class collide?onstage and off. The City of Aventura proudly partners with FUNDarte and the Miami-Dade County Auditorium to bring this production to the Aventura Arts & Cultural Center.
