UT Out Loud: The House of Bernarda Alba

The five daughters of Bernarda Alba have been sentenced to eight years of seclusion, mourning the recent death of their father. But erotic intrigues and exquisite longings cannot be contained in a house of cloistered daughters. A poetic drama by Federico García Lorca, one of the 20th century’s greatest dramatists, permeates this tragic masterpiece of matriarchal despotism. This new adaptation by Chay Yew was nominated for Outstanding Adaptation by the Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle.
