Comedia de capa y espada, en cuya representacion participo la misma autora dejando atonitas a su companeras de claustro. Esta obra narra la historia de dos hermanos Don Pedro y Dona Ana que viven juntos en Toledo. Ambos estan enamorados y deberan pasar por una serie de equivocos y enredos antes de conseguir, por medio de estratagemas, seducir a sus amados. El argumento, propio del siglo XVII en que fue escrita la obra, encuentra, gracias a la originalidad de su autora, un final impredecible donde se unen lo real y lo alegorico. A ‘cloak and dagger’ comedy, in which the author herself performed, leaving her fellow nuns speechless. This work tells the story of a brother and sister, Don Pedro and Dona Ana, who live together in Toledo. Both are in love and must pass through a series of mistakes and misadventures before managing, by various strategems, to seduce their respective beloved. The plot, very much a 17th century storyline, thanks to the originality of the author, finds its way to an unpredictable end where the real and the allegorical meet.
