    A collaboration with Belmont University Department of Theatre and Dance.

    The play centers on the events of a home in Andalusia during a period of mourning, in which matriarch, Bernarda Alba, wields total control over her five adult daughters forbidding them even the smallest of freedoms. When secret loves are harbored, things begin to spin out of Bernarda’s control and she attempts to tighten her grip with disastrous results. Exploring the themes of jealousy, passion, control, tradition, as well as the economics of marriage versus the nature of love, the play is considered to be the greatest of Lorca’s work (the last he completed before his murder by fascists in the Spanish Civil War) and a classic of the modern theatre.
