Trailer:

Blood Wedding is a visual, physical, and visceral contemporary adaptation  of Lorca's 'Blood Wedding'. Originally written in 1930s Spain, amidst political extremism and calls for change and revolution, this production is timely. It positions the world of the performance here – in this environment bringing a new vision for this work at a fragile time in the world. Posing questions to do with traditions, boundaries, gender, morality, human savagery, freedom, and the power of the ‘knife’, the themes resonate today as loudly as they did then.

Knives. Knives. Curse of God on the man who invented them. Do you know the power of a knife? Have you ever packed a knife wound with salt? Stuffed the guts back into the stomach cavity? You ever see a man slit from his throat to his groin? I’ll talk about knives if I want to. I know knives.
(Mother: Blood Wedding)

At its heart, Blood Wedding is about: the effects of war on a personal level; and the struggles of women to find their voice in a male dominated society. This is a piece that pits tribe against tribe. Class against class. All to a devastating end. It is eerily relevant in today's world.
