Bodas de sangre

Summary —

Deeply rooted in Spain’s classic repertory theater, this play is a vivid portrait of Andalusian society in the time of Lorca. In this work, the author steps away from the festive and picaresque spirit and fuses the brilliance of lyrical poetry with a very personal drama. This tragedy presents the tensions within a family, revealing with energetic prose the secret desires and forbidden ideas that marked people in the 1930s.
