The analysis of the text, the stage directions and the scenic movement in La casa de los celos point to the author's interest in exploiting for the stage the potential of dreams. Such a common experience is easily recognizable by the spectators and helps to thrill them. Cervantes demonstrates, not only a knowledge of the theory, but also a familiarity with courtly and civic pageants and their reflection in books of chivalry and poesía de cancionero. Although imperfect, the theatrical piece is an indication of Cervantes' concern to link marvels to the inner self. Lope and his early works may have been an influence in adopting these patterns.
