A Spanish love story has been translated and is being performing in English for the first time at the George Street Playhouse in New Brunswick.

"Baipas" stars Maggie Bofill and Jorge Luna as the spirits of two hospital patients whose lives are at risk. The play asks the question - what would you do if your life was on the line, and you had a last chance at romance?

The play is directed by Julio Monge who says the play strips everything down.

"The connections that we make and how we affect each other and how much life we give one another," says Monge.

"Baipas" is written by the legendary Puerto Rican filmmaker Jacobo Morales. Performances run through March 20.
