Synopsis: Blood Wedding, presented by Studio 58 and Directed by Carmen Aguirre, reimagines Federico García Lorca’s poetic tragedy within an Andalusian bar. Blending flamenco rhythms, folk traditions, and a sleek ensemble aesthetic, the story follows a young bride torn between duty and desire as her past with the married Leonardo ignites a tragic chain of events. With haunting music, stylized movement, and surreal visuals, this production honors Lorca’s exploration of passion, repression, and the cyclical violence of honour-bound societies.
