Three comedies : Behind the scenes in Eden, Rigmaroles, the other William by Jaime Salom( )

3 editions published in 2004 in English and held by 1,117 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"Three Comedies represents the first English-language collection of plays by Jaime Salom, one of Spain's most important contemporary dramatists. His forty-plus works encompass an impressive array of subgenres, including domestic dramas, mysteries, political allegories, historical comedies, metaphysical meditations, and tales of Spanish life. Best known for his veiled critiques of Francisco Franco's regime, Salom went on to explore less overtly politicized themes following the dictator's death in 1975. This new volume features a trio of comedies from his later phase that offer insight into life under the eased restraints of a nominally democratic Spain."

"El sueño de la razón produce monstruos», escribió Goya al pie de uno de sus Caprichos. En esta obra, que su autor califica de «fantasía» y con la que da un paso decisivo hacia el «teatro total», se alza un nuevo retablo histórico con el gran pintor aragonés como protagonista. El sueño de la razón es una obra de circunstancias en la que la lección simbólica apunta a los conflictos permanentes del ser humano y confiere al drama un valor universal de pensamiento y arte."--Publisher's website

Barcelona plays : a collection of new plays by Catalan playwrights( Book )

4 editions published in 2008 in English and held by 133 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"Barcelona's theatre has experienced a remarkable renaissance in the years since the end of the Franco dictatorship. First, performance groups such as La Fura dels Baus, Els Joglars, Dagoll-Dagom, and La Cubana flourished with distinctive productions in which spectacle and movement predominated. In 1976, the Teatre Lliure began to set new production standards with a repertory of international plays. Soon the Catalan language, suppressed for more than three decades, became the vehicle of expression for new playwrights who challenged the performance groups with a "teatre de text." The new plays in this collection represent outstanding playwrights of three generations."--BOOK JACKET
