Ticket BLOOD WEDDING - IAB Acting Performance en Barcelona
BLOOD WEDDING
By Federico García Lorca.
Translation by Ted Hughes
Directed by Mathilde López
Performed by IAB's Acting Level 6 Students
SYNOPSIS
Federico García Lorca’s Blood Wedding is a poetic tragedy set in rural Andalusia that explores passion, fate and duty under the crushing weight of patriarchy and tradition.
This is the story of a wedding, the two women at the centre of it, the Bride and the Mother of the Groom and their respective struggle with or adherence to the misogynistic society they belong to.
When the bride disobeys the unwritten rules, the villagers' rage tacitly calls upon the Moon and Death, who, like midwives, accompany the Lover and the Groom to their inescapable deaths. Through its blend of realism, lyricism, and folklore, Blood Wedding exposes the conflict between the individual and society, the weight and appeal of tradition, and how patriarchy persists, championed and furthered by its victims, women.
