Recenzii

'Best of all is Ann Mitchell's superb Bernarda Alba, who presides over her daughters like a malevolent mother superior. As polished and shiney as her own furniture, a husk of a woman who puts pride and honour before love and generosity, and who is so out of touch with her own heart that she ignores all the signs of the coming disaster, content to rule her house with her eyes wide shut.'
It is a play about what happens to hearts when they are walled up and denied the opportunity to sweel with love and happiness'
In Bernada Alba's household, sexual control, pious display and honour make a pressure cooker of repression.
Lorca's last play - castigating crushing social convention and woman conspiring in their own oppression.
It is a famously grim tale..the tension mounts and never flags.
Lorca's theme, as the critic Eric Bentley once wrote is, 'the attempt to preserve honour in the face of the sexual instinct'.
Aching physical desire and the death-wish of a woman who says of her lover, 'When I look in to his eyes, it's like I'm slowly drinking his blood'. It is a riveting evening.
