Four Key Plays: The Audience, Blood Wedding, Yerma, The House of Bernarda Alba

In
addition to a substantial introduction to the life and works of Federico
Garcia Lorca - avant-garde poet, playwright, and soul of Spain’s ‘Generation of '27’ - this collection features vibrant new English
translations of four of his plays.

The legacy of a dramatic, religious, and
social iconoclast who died a martyr of the left in Civil-War Spain and who
today is also embraced as a gay icon shines through Michael Kidd’s
stage-worthy new renderings of Yerma, Blood Wedding, The House of Bernarda Alba
and a less-famous play: The Audience, a kaleidoscopic exploration of sexual
identity and theatre.
