UCSB’s Department of Theater and Dance & IV Arts proudly present Pedro Calderón de la Barca’s Life is a Dream. This three-hundred year old Spanish Golden Age drama has been adapted from Nilo Cruz’s contemporary text for the digital stage. Join us for this surreal, swashbuckling fable that asks us all: is our fate written in our own ink, or in the stars?
