Choreography by

Federico García Lorca

The whole community is preparing for a big wedding. But some people are not looking forward to it. While the groom’s mother fears that the marriage will mark a definitive break between her and her son, the bride-to-be tries in vain to forget Leonardo, who has also married.

Through “Blood Wedding”, Lorca illustrates the chronicle of a tragedy that opposes traditional mentality with the twists and turns of the human soul engulfed by passions. Honor Horváth’s adaptation takes this conflict to a new level, questioning the legitimacy of norms which risk unleashing a human catastrophe.
