Day Three of the 4th Spanish Cultural Week took place today (October 12) at the Musa Yar'Adua Centre, featuring a play entitled FUENTEOVEJUNA, written by Lope de Vega in 1476 and based on actual events that took place in the Spanish town of Fuenteovejuna.Adapted for Nigerian stage by the Jos Repertory Theatre, FUENTEOVEJUNA (The Fountain of the Sheep) depicts the wicked ways of Commander Fernan Gomez, who ruled the people with tyranny and who dies at the hands of those he has oppressed.
Photo shows scenes from the play (top) and the Ambassador of Spain, H.E. Angel Lozada and Madam Lozada (bottom left) with other members of the audience (right.) Those who missed the play will have a chance to watch it on October 17 at the Merit House in Maitama.
