THE RADICALS & AVANT-GARDE 1920–1970
Federico García Lorca’s theatre unfolds like a folk song that turns into a scream. He was a Spanish poet-playwright who infused the real stories of rural Spain with surreal imagery and lyrical symbolism, creating a style often called poetic realism. In Lorca’s plays, the setting might be a humble village or a family home bound by tradition, but the language and emotion soar to passionate heights, and fate itself feels like a character hovering just offstage.
Lorca grew up in Andalusia, in southern Spain – a land of flamenco music, gypsy lore, intense religious fervor, and codified honor codes. He loved the traditional forms (folk ballads, flamenco “deep song”), and he once said he tried to “resurrect and revitalize the most basic strains of Spanish poetry and theatre” . His major plays certainly do that. Often grouped as the “rural trilogy,” Blood Wedding (1933), Yerma (1934), and The House of Bernarda Alba (1936) dig into the soil of Spanish society – examining passion, oppression, and the collision between individual desire and societal mores – with a mix of earthy realism and flights of poetry.
