The King Who Raved was created by Ramos Carrión, Vital Aza and Chapí in 1891; it is a milestone in the history of lyric theatre and on the stage of the Teatro de la Zarzuela. For few kings, not even the most popular kings of history, nor those most loved by their people, will have been so acclaimed, so applauded, or so hoorayed as our King in this kingdom of La Zarzuela.

With this new production by the Teatro de la Zarzuela, the Italian stage director Davide Livermore and the British musical director Karel Mark Chichon show us a series of pictures of customs that shine through in Luisa Fernanda.
