Fuente Grande is a one-act play by John Tavano which is set in a small bar where the friends of Federico Garcia Lorca gather and clandestinely try to protect him from assassination at the time of the Spanish Civil War.

Our play takes place on the night of Lorca’s murder as his friends clandestinely try to protect him.

Fuente Grande is a natural spring in the city of Granada, Spain, first named Aynadamarin, in Arabic, The Fountain of Tears—during the Spanish Civil War, the place where Nationalist Forces carried out assassinations, including that of the poet Federico Garcia Lorca when he was 38 years old.
