Don Juan: lover or rapist? trickster or psychopath/ martyr or demon? Moliere, Mozart, Pushkin, Byron, Shaw and Camus, to name but a few, have all taken the story of Don Juan as a source of inspiration for their art, philosophy and imagination, defending or condemning him in turn. But it was Tirso de Monlina's classic 17th Century Spanish masterpiece El Burlador de Sevilla which began and created the whole Don Juan mythology. In a theatre as vital, rich and varied as its Elizabethan counterpart, Spain's Golden Age mixed the serious and the comic, the sacred and the profane, and produced that rare thing: great art that manages to be truly entertaining.| 17 Jun 97 to 21 Jun 97 | OFS Studio (previously known as Old Fire Station Theatre) Oxford, Oxfordshire Performance Details => Venue archive |
