Written shortly before playwright Federico Garcia Lorca’s assassination in 1936, The House of Bernarda Alba explores the consequences of a mother’s tyranny over her daughters after the death of her husband.
Bernarda Alba declares a mourning period of eight years for her household, which includes her five marriageable daughters and her mother, but the arrival of a suitor for her eldest daughter forces the revelation of their family secrets and passions to an explosive conclusion. Kathleen O’Neill directs.
