La casa de Bernarda Alba

Bernarda Alba's House was the last play by Lorca, who would never see it performed. Starring ordinary people who leave town, denying heroism, it represents daily and family pain until its last consequences. The characters and the space are chained with supreme mastery to a sterile passion - love not achieved - whose sacrificial liberation is death. Bernarda Alna's house is thus a tragedy in which the tyranny of oppressive social norms, embodied in Bernarda, relentlessly stifles the desire for desire and freedom; a dramatic metaphor for intimate and social repression, a radical protest against a closed and hopeless world.
