Community Theater Green Room Discussion Board: plays in Spanish

Message

   I need to find a play inSpanish. 

Last year we did a one night event of staged reading in Spanish with the English translation projected overhead.  It went over so well, that we have planned another for June.   
I am having trouble finding a play though. 

I want to find a comedy, but am open to anything. 
The problem has been finding something that is published in Spanish, but has the English translation available so I can read it.

Both Dramatist's and French have been no help.

Anyone out there ever done this?

	Blood Wedding by Federico Garcia Lorca. I have read it and seen it both in english and spanish. Samuel French has the rights to the english translation. A book store or library should be able to help you with the spanish version. It is not a comedy. Linda

	another play by Lorca that I just love is "The House of Bernarda Alba" - I've seen it in Spanish and read it in English, so I know both are available.
