La Maison de Bernarda Alba by Federico García Lorca "The House of Bernarda Alba", Federico García Lorca's last play, was written in 1936, a few months before Lorca was jailed and executed. The plot takes place in a Spanish village in Andalusia, a country on the eve of the Civil War, oppressed by fascism. This masterpiece explores such themes as passion, oppression and conformity in a male dominated rural society, through the eyes of Bernarda and her daughters. The exclusion of any male character generates a high level of sexual tension, five sisters living on the edge of unfulfilled desires and unattainable dreams.
