Asunción, Agencia IP.- On Monday, November 18, and Tuesday, November 19, Asunción will host a series of events commemorating the anniversary of the birth of Elisa Alicia Lynch, a historical figure who marked a milestone in the relationship between Paraguay and Ireland. Organized by the Paraguayan Community in Ireland (CLG) and supported by various institutions, the celebration aims to highlight her cultural legacy and strengthen ties between the two nations.

The events began with the simultaneous planting of the project’s first tree, «Paseo de los Lapachos—Residenta Elisa Alicia Lynch,» in Asunción and Charleville, Ireland, Lynch’s birthplace. This heartfelt act, supported by Crann Trees for Ireland, was live-streamed between the two cities as a symbol of solidarity.

In the evening, at 8:00 PM, Asunción’s riverside promenade, at the Heroes of Chaco Bridge, will host the grand performance of «Eliza Lynch and Marshal López: A Love Story Without Limits.» The play will feature Margarita Franco as Elisa Lynch and Marcelo Monraht as Marshal López, supported by a top-tier cast directed by Juan Aveiro, with music by maestro Arsenio Zárate.
