The Courage to Right a Woman’s Wrongs 

Leonor has been wronged by her lover. So, what’s a girl to do? Hunt the rat down and take a sword to his throat, of course! In this devilishly fun play by one of Spain’s most successful ladies of letters, Leonor and her friend Ribete battle with their whole selves– hearts, minds, and bodies– as they fool and foil not only Don Juan but an entire entourage of wily wits, rueful rogues, and fetching flirts. Beware: a woman’s wrongs are no match for her courage. . . and love often lurks in the least likely of places.
