Villa Montezuma Museum

Zarzuela comes to San Diego!
A passionate beauty sways the hearts and political leanings of two men as Spain is torn between monarchy and revolution in Federico Moreno Torroba’s “Luisa Fernanda.”
This fiery yet romantic drama is a great example of Zarzuela, a unique Spanish art form incorporating classical singing as well as spoken words to tell stories of the people. “Luisa Fernanda” was written in 1932, and it has been one of the most beloved Zarzuelas ever since.
Cinballera Entertainment is honoring San Diego’s rich Hispanic history by performing this Zarzuela in concert at the beautiful Villa Montezuma. The production will be performed in costume and with as much staging as possible in the intimate setting of the Villa.
Cinballera’s Season 3 finale also honors its founders’ operatic history. Sisters Tiffany and Rebekah Brannan performed in this opera at ages 12 and 9, their first opera.

Where poetry, dance, music, and painted costumes come alive.
A San Diego mom and U.S. Navy service member is bringing her deeply personal story to the stage.
“Where the Heart Belongs” is a one-woman performance by Vietnamese artist Linh Tran, presented at the San Diego International Fringe Festival. Blending poetry, music, dance, and hand-painted visual art, the show transforms the stage into a living gallery--where every movement, costume, and object is an original artwork.
At its heart, the performance is a love letter to her first child, and a tribute to the child she lost--an emotional journey through motherhood, love, loss, and healing.
Some poems are sung live with melodies created on stage, while dance unfolds through improvisation--making each performance unique.
✨ What to expect: 
• Original poetry, music, and movement 
• Hand-painted costumes and immersive visuals 
• A deeply emotional and intimate experience
