Description: |
This play studies the maternal instincts of women and shows a woman prepared to use her sexuality and go after what she wants. Written by Lorca in the backdrop of a Spain in revolution, and Lorca being a man who would go on to fight and die in the Spanish civil war. |
Synopsis: |
Lorca's beautiful and savage play is transplanted from the suffocating heat of Spain to a barren landscape much closer to home, bringing Yerma's anguish at her childlessness into heart-breaking focus. Suffocating in a life void of passion, Yerma turns to unconventional sources for answers. Her innocent yet controversial actions send shockwaves through a tiny and stagnant community. Desperate and unbearably lonely, Yerma commits the ultimate act of rebellion, setting her free yet sealing her unhappy fate forever. |
