Las Leonas at Majestic Theatre Dallas

Las Leonas is a concept that's meant to hold a mirror up for the audience. That's the main reason why the play has been so popular, even with the seemingly revolving door in the cast. It's important to clear up that issue, of course. A lot of the situations with the changes in the cast have to do with scheduling conflicts with some of the actresses. As mentioned, many of them you'll know from your favorite novelas, and if Paola Rojas makes it to the Majestic Theater, she'll be a celebrity you know from her time on the news! Part of the success of Las Leonas is the perfectly written characters that match the actresses that play them.

Spoiler alert, but the best example of this excellent writing comes with Lupita Jones' character. She talks about this transition from the beauty pageant scene and all the difficulties that come in that environment. Lupita, of course, won the Miss Universe pageant in 1991. Therefore, a lot of the things that she talks about could very well be based on her own experiences. This is where that blurred line comes in. The audience a lot of times doesn't really know if they're seeing an autobiography play out on stage with some of the characters, or if this is the work of fiction. This sense of realism allows the morals of the play to hit home a lot harder than they would otherwise. It also makes coming out to see the show all the more worthwhile. Again, it's not every day that you get some of the top actresses in Mexico taking a stage in North Texas.

The Majestic Theater is a great venue for theatrical productions. At the end of the day, that's exactly what the venue was built to host. All of the tips that you can find about picking your seats for a play apply here. Try to find a spot in the middle of the theater, ideally a few rows back. These places are going to give you a much larger perspective of the entire show. Hit that get tickets button today before the most coveted seats run out.
