LA Escena is Los Angeles’ first Hispanic classical theater festival, organized by UCLA’s Diversifying the Classics, which is part of the Division of Humanities. Since the inaugural edition in 2018, LA Escena has brought the best of Southern California theater together with acclaimed performers from around the world to celebrate the comedia in performance and adaptation.
This year LA Escena will offer productions at UCLA’s MacGowan Hall by internationally recognized Spanish theater company Jóvenes Clásicos, performing Canciones de Olmedo and Amar después de la muerte, three new adaptations from our popular Golden Tongues series, and new performances stemming from our Mex-Clásicos initiative. These include La casa de empeños by Christian Nájera and Historias amorosas by Paola Izquierdo, adapted from pioneering Baroque female dramatists Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz and María de Zayas de Sotomayor. We will also feature theatre dybbuk’s “illuminated lecture” on La Celestina. To conclude the festival, streaming from New York City, Red Bull Theater will present a virtual reading of Diversifying the Classics’ latest translation, Luis Vélez de Guevara’s The King Born a Woman, as a part of our ongoing collaboration, Hispanic Golden Age Classics.

Director Bart DeLorenzo rips Ibsen’s classic powerhouse of a play out of the 19th century and thrusts it into 2025. A century and a quarter since its premiere, this lean and urgent reimagining honors Ibsen’s original through highlighting its contemporary likeness – a likeness too uncanny to ignore. Enemy of the People holds up a mirror that flatters no one, a searing staging of a society in freefall. Can you look away? Should you?
