International Shakespeare Center and Teatro Paraguas present

'The Duchess of Amalfi's Steward’ by Lope de Vega

As part of the ongoing Long Dead But Well Read series of readings of plays by contemporary playwrights of Shakespeare, the International Shakespeare Center and Teatro Paraguas present The Duchess of Amalfi’s Steward, by Lope de Vega.

Written in 1604, Lope’s play is based on the true story of Giovanna d’Aragona, Duchess of Amalfi, her marriage to her steward Antonio Beccadelli, and her tragic murder with her three children fathered by Beccadelli on the orders of her brother, Cardinal Luigi d’Aragona, in 1510.

Lope’s version differs greatly from the play The Duchess of Malfi, written by John Webster in 1614...
