TDS: COLLABORATION: The House of Bernarda Alba
Lorca’s seminal play "The House of Bernarda Alba" follows a family of five daughters in rural Spain locked into mourning for eight years after the death of their father. Their constrained world explodes as the oldest and wealthiest daughter gets engaged to the man the youngest daughters long for. Written in the midst of rising fascism, the play allegorically explores the human cost of a world where image is tightly controlled to suit the needs of power. Through the poetry and music of his language, which Caridad Svich’s translation elegantly preserves, Lorca offers a freedom we can feel. His play is both a tragedy and a love letter to the wild human spirit, an encouragement for the heart’s opening to “the irresistible beauty of all things.”

Three generations of women — Carol, Anna and Bonnie; mother, daughter and granddaughter — exist in three different temporal spaces but their stories are told simultaneously. The play, written in a unique style in which the characters' lives play out concurrently, asks whether trauma can be passed down through DNA. It's a harrowing, original work that leaves a lasting mark.
