Following the death of her second husband, the tyrannical Bernarda imposes an 8-year mourning period on her five daughters, shutting them in her cold house. The lockdown doesn’t last for too long as the girls' desires challenge their mother's harsh rules. Rumors put family alliances to the test as jealousy, desire and love run high when a rich and handsome suitor exerts pressure on the sisters in this bilingual staging of the classic Lorca play.

Luego de la muerte de su segundo marido, la tiránica Bernarda impone un período de luto de 8 años a sus cinco hijas, trancándolas en su fría casa. El confinamiento no dura mucho a medida que los deseo de las mujeres las impulsan a desafiar las reglas de su madre. Chismes y rumores ponen las relaciones familiares a prueba, sobretodo cuando un pretendiente joven y rico ejerce su presión en las hermanas, aumentando sus celos, deseos y amor en esta puesta en escena bilingüe de la obra clásica de Lorca.

by Federico Garcia Lorca

Directed by Ramón Réal Vargas Alanis
