La reina del cor : Comedia lírica en un acte by Ignasi Iglesias
"La reina del cor : Comedia lírica en un acte by Ignasi Iglesias" is a one-act lyric comedy (stage play with songs) written in the early 20th century. Set in a rural Catalan inn on Saint Anthony Abbot’s day, it blends music, festivity, and romantic intrigue; the likely topic is a simple love story unfolding amid a carters’ celebration. The play follows Reina, a virtuous young maid, and Tralla, a frank, big-hearted
widowed carter who adores her and dreams of giving her a home and a daughter to love. Paula, the bustling innkeeper, nudges Reina to accept him, and Reina finally admits she has loved Tralla all along. As the village revels in the Tres Toms—drinking, joking, and preparing for the evening dance—Ramonet, Paula’s son and a local favorite, realizes too late that he also loves Reina. Tralla publicly declares his intentions, warns Ramonet to show respect, and sets off to fetch the marriage papers. The comic bustle of Milhomes and the other carters, the musicians’ lively tunes, and the promise of the ball frame the happy resolution: Reina joyfully waves her kerchief to Tralla as he departs, sealing a straightforward, affectionate union in the midst of communal merriment.
