PERFORMANCES

A Blood Wedding

The Swansea University players will be performing this play by F. Garcia Lorca ,which is based on true story. On 22d July,1928, in the dusty heat of Andalucia, a young bride abandoned her groom to be with her secret lover. The consequences of overflowing passion and revenge are terrible. After the groom searches out her lover, both men die in a duel. Although the ugliness of death is evident, the celebration of passionate life also plays a major role.
