DON JUAN
EL BURLADOR DE SEVILLA
(The Trickster of Seville)
Desire. Deception. Consequence.
In this electrifying classic by Tirso de Molina, Don Juan moves through the world as if rules do not apply to him—seducing, deceiving, and leaving destruction in his wake.
But every lie has a cost, and every betrayal leaves a mark. As the bodies of his broken promises begin to surround him, Don Juan is forced to confront a question he has long avoided: how long can a man outrun the consequences of his actions?
Don Juan: The Trickster of Seville is a gripping tale of power, morality, and reckoning that still echoes powerfully in today’s world.

Be Part of Her Legacy
Margarita Galbán dreamed of a theatre that would serve as a home for bilingual voices, cultural memory, and generations of artists yet to come. Today, that dream is within reach. In keeping with her vision, the space would carry the name The Carmen Zapata Theater, honoring another trailblazer whose legacy helped shape Latino theatre in the United States.
More than a building, this theatre would be a place where communities gather, stories are shared, and new voices find their stage. It will provide opportunities for young artists, create access to the performing arts for diverse audiences, and ensure that bilingual theatre continues to thrive for generations.
Every contribution brings this vision closer to reality. Significant gifts will be recognized with lasting acknowledgment, honoring those whose generosity helps create a permanent cultural home for the community.
