The author's high-emotional-stakes romances are about to reach a wider audience, with a five-book deal and an upcoming TV adaptation. Ryan says her "happily ever after" has been "hard-won."

She was always the good daughter. But now her mother, in the twilight of her life, calls her “mala”—bad to the core. Melinda Lopez’s funny, brutally honest, and ultimately cathartic solo play is an irreverent exploration of how we live, cope, and survive in a challenging moment, and what happens when we strive to be good but don’t always succeed. Theatermania calls it “deeply affecting,” while The Boston Globe named it “one of the best plays of the year. Piercingly honest and exquisitely moving.” In our commitment to provide access to the widest San Diego audience, The Old Globe will present Mala in Spanish on selected dates. Mala is supported by production sponsors the Globe Guilders. Enjoy Mala from May 7 through June 17 at The Old Globe on the following schedule: More information on "Mala" en español here • Saturday, May 7 at 8 p.m. • Sunday, May 8 at 7 p.m. • Tuesday, May 10 at 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. • Wednesday, May 11 at 7 p.m. • Thursday, May 12 at 8 p.m. • Friday, May 13 at 8 p.m. • Saturday, May 14 at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. • Sunday, May 15 at 7 p.m. and 7 p.m. • Tuesday, May 17 at 7 p.m. • Wednesday, May 18 at 7 p.m. • Thursday, May 19 at 8 p.m. in Spanish • Friday, May 20 at 8 p.m. • Saturday, May 21 at 2 p.m. in English and 8 p.m. in Spanish • Sunday, May 22 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. • Tuesday, May 24 at 7 p.m. in Spanish • Wednesday, May 25 at 7 p.m. • Thursday, May 26 at 8 p.m. • Friday, May 27 at 8 p.m. • Saturday, May 28 at 2 p.m. in Spanish and 8 p.m. in English • Sunday, May 29 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. • Tuesday, May 31 at 7 p.m. • Wednesday, June 1 at 2 p.m. in English and 7 p.m. in Spanish • Thursday, June 2 at 8 p.m. • Friday, June 3 at 8 p.m. • Saturday, June 4 at 8 p.m. • Sunday, June 5 at 2 p.m. in English and 7 p.m. in Spanish • Tuesday, June 7 at 7 p.m. • Wednesday, June 8 at 7 p.m. • Thursday, June 9 at 8 p.m. • Friday, June 10 at 8 p.m. in Spanish • Saturday, June 11 at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. • Sunday, June 12 at 2 p.m. in Spanish and 7 p.m. in English Get tickets here!
