About This Show

Trapped between an obsessive cleric and a loving aristocrat, a poet nun fights for the rights of the individual soul and the education of women against the Inquisition in 17th century Mexico. What happens when an extraordinary woman becomes a nun, advocates the equality of women and meets the Inquisition? Such was the dilemma of Sor Juana de la Cruz. In Susan Tammany’s La Fenix, Sor Juana is loved and protected by a Countess, loved and protected by a priest. Her story is compelling, provocative and passionate.
