José Zorrilla: Don Juan Tenorio

The first appearance of the Don Juan legend in literary form was in Tirso’s El Burlador de Sevilla. Molière’s Dom Juan, da Ponte’s libretto for Mozart’s Don Giovanni, and the “Don Juan in Hell” scene in George Bernard Shaw’s Man and Superman are the other most famous versions, with the notable addition of Zorrilla’s play. It was the most successful play of the nineteenth century in Spain. The reason is made obvious by this stylish, lavish, and captivating production. An RTVE Production. (Spanish, 2 hours 17 minutes)
