Love, societal constrictions and clever young women make for successful theatrical plots in any language, in any time period. Lope de Vega's 1606 Spanish comedy La Discreta Enamorada is proof. It's been updated and translated to reflect the Spanish dance music and costumes of the 1950s for an English-language performance and goes back to its "Spanish version of Shakespeare" roots for a Spanish version. La Discreta Enamorada is at 8 p.m. Wednesdays through Saturdays and 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, Wednesday through November 19 at the Garson Theatre, 6101 Bishop Blvd., on the SMU campus. Additional performances in Spanish will take place at 8 p.m. December 1 through December 3. Admission is $6 to $12. Call 214-768-2787.
Wednesdays-Saturdays, 8 p.m.; Saturdays, Sundays, 2 p.m.; Dec. 1-3, 8 p.m. Starts: Nov. 15. Continues through Nov. 19
