Teresa: A Two- Act Dramedy

By Anthony Ernest Gallo and Anthony E. Gallo

Teresa is about a determined feminist mystic, one of the most brilliant and liberated women of all time. She jokes, tricks, deceives, manipulates, bribes, strategizes, lies and triumphs. Yet today this unpredictable woman is known as St. Teresa of Avila, and a Doctor of the Church. This granddaughter of a noble Marrano ("that Jewish woman") is at odds with the Church hierarchy: nuns, King Philip, the civil authorities, members of the Inquisition, the Grand inquisitor, God and some say all the angels and saints. And she outsmarts them all with her cunning, sly tongue, sheer brilliance, skillful adaptation, humility, arrogance, and craziness. She even reprimands God: "No wonder you have so few friends. You treat us so badly"
