  A play by the author of Don Quixote. The folk hero Pedro de Urdemalas, known in Spanish balladry and tradition - from mediaeval times to Lorca - as a swindling trickster with a thousand costume and identity changes up his sleeve, is here dramatised by Cervantes. It's a delightful if somewhat sprawling tale of Pedro's life's journey.
