Total Eclipse is a comic opera written in 1991 by Kevin Krisciunas and Margaret Lynn Harshbarger. It was performed on June 28 and 29, 1991, at the University of Hawaii in Hilo, co-directed by Jackie Frink and Margaret Lynn Harshbarger. Set design was by George Harshbarger.
The play takes place in Barcelona, Spain, in May of 1706.
The action takes place on the days leading up to, and
including, May 12, 1706, in Barcelona, capital of the
province of Catalonia, Spain.
To tell the truth, there really was a total solar
eclipse visible from Barcelona on May 12th. Local politics
was intertwined with the War of the Spanish Succession. The
local leader was the Austrian Archduke Charles III. Solar
eclipses do repeat with an 18 year cycle. |
