Un Cuento de Luces y Sombras (A Tale of Lights and Shadows) is an operetta in three acts, composed by Carlos Cordero with libretto by Germán Barboza, about the fight between two reigns: the reign of lights and the reign of shadows. Kira, the queen of light, is in a war against Sombras, the king of shadows, while Zara and Adrik -their heirs- fall deeply in love defying the rules set by Zola –dame of the Earth- that dictated that no one from the two worlds can meet with each other. That's the way things are supposed to be, or at least how they thought it was best.
