2009: Year of the Ox
The Ox is among the most powerful signs in the Chinese zodiac and is associated with prosperity and fortitude. People born in the Year of the Ox are dependable, patient, tireless, strong, and possess an innate ability to achieve great things. Like their animal namesake, they can also be stubborn, eccentric, and easily angered. They speak little but are extremely intelligent. When necessary, they are articulate and eloquent.

The Ricardo Montalban Theatre hosts a production of Luisa Fernanda. Federico Moreno Torroba's 1932 show is one of the last and greatest examples of the zarzuela, a traditional Spanish form which blends operatic grandeur with dramatic musical theatre. Luisa Fernanda tells a story of romance set against the backdrop of the popular 1868 uprising against the Queen of Spain.
