Every summer, several of my friends and I get together to sing a zarzuela. This is the third time we will do this, and we will be performing "Luisa Fernanda." There is such glorious music that many people do not know of in these pieces. We perform them without blocking, with two pianos (and percussion, sometimes), and people have really loved it. Earlier we sang "El barberillo de Lavapies" and "La tabernera del puerto." If you haven't had a chance to listen or sing any of these, try them out!
