Moving Arts Española and Teatro Paraguas presents

La Casa de Bernarda Alba (staged reading in Spanish)

Moving Arts Española and Teatro Paraguas are pleased to present a staged reading in Spanish of Federico Garcia Lorca's last play La Casa de Bernarda Alba, directed by Mar Cuevas and starring Lucia Alexandre as the domineering matriarch Bernarda Alba.

Upon her second husband's death, domineering matriarch Bernarda Alba imposes an eight-year mourning period on her household in accordance with her family tradition. Bernarda has five daughters, aged between 20 and 39, whom she has rigidly controlled and prohibited from any form of relationship.

Angustias, the only daughter from Bernarda's first marriage, has a dowry and has attracted the attention of Pepe el Romano. The other daughters have no dowries and no prospects. Tensions mount in the household, leading to tragic consequences.
