Would you take a knife to a wedding?

Based on a true story of a blood feud between rival gypsy clans in Spain, Blood Wedding presents a raw and highly charged theatre experience.

This is a story of betrayal: two young lovers are torn apart, the man marries another, his lover is betrothed to a different man. They make a desperate and secret bid to elope; she flees from her fiancé on her wedding day with fatal consequences.

Federico Garcia Lorca uses Blood Wedding to expose an inflexible and intolerant peasant culture. Highly superstitious himself, Lorca weaves into this tragedy the vague dark forces of blood feuds, sex, death and the moon, which manipulate his characters and unravel a tale of intense passion and primitive ritual.
