Grupo de Teatro Vida, a Spanish language performance group, performed The Cave of Salamanca (La Cueva de Salamanca) during a three-day run this month at the John Waldron Arts Center in Bloomington, Indiana.

IDSnews.com reports that prior to each performance, the director came out and explained the play in English, so those who didn't speak Spanish could follow along.  The troupe also presented two other short Spanish-language plays at each performance.

In the Cave, Miguel de Cervantes, author of Don Quixote, tells the story of a woman, Leonarda, and her maid, Cristina, who plan to unite with their lovers while Leonarda's husband is out of town, IDSnews writes.  "A young student then sought shelter at their house and agreed to keep the ladies' affairs secret.  When Leonarda's husband unexpectedly returned, the student saved the day with his tale of magic from the Cave of Salamanca."

The IDSNews.com reviewer, Lara Streyle, called the performance of the Cave "humorous and entertaining."
