The Romea Theatre brings to Murcia this weekend the "tragic poem" by Federico Garcia Lorca: Yerma (03/05/2012)

The Romea Theatre hosts this weekend complete the work that one of the most important theater trilogies of literature in Castilian Blood Wedding and The House of Bernarda Alba, Yerma, which Federico Garcia Lorca called as a tragic poem.

The renowned playwright Miguel Narros takes the reins of this new staging of the work of Federico Garcia Lorca with the music of Enrique Morente and starring Silvia Marsó.

Yerma is a young married woman living in Andalusia from the 30's.

His only desire is to have children, but her husband, an Andalusian peasant, neither can nor wants to give them.

Yerma is sterile but his stubbornness makes all the blame falling on poor John, predetermined and predestined victim.

Praised by the best critics, from Unamuno to E.

Díez-Canedo, Yerma (1934) is, as defined himself Federico Garcia Lorca (1898-1936), "the image of fertility to sterility punished" in that dramatic universal game in which creatures move Lorca : the opposition between the forces of life, their destiny of freedom, and oppression of these forces is tipped even lead to death.

The social role of women in a Spanish village in the early twentieth century seems doomed to domestic work and motherhood, outlining this perspective, the family structure.

The play that begins in the book, was written by Federico Garcia Lorca in 1924 and staged for the first time in Madrid under the interpretation of Margarita Xirgu.

In Yerma social prejudices are embodied in the female character which gives name to the work and they build the story through his sufferings and reflections.

The violence and cruelty of a dark, suffocating, is portrayed to perfection in this intense work that will be in Murcia on 4, 5 and 6 May, at 21, 22 and 20 hours respectively.

The price of seats is 20, 15 and 10 euros.
