Love Under a Cold Moon: Gala Hispanic Theatre’s production of Federico Garcia Lorca’s “Blood Wedding” – Washington DC

IF YOU DON’T SPEAK SPANISH, you might need to see the Gala Hispanic Theatre’s production of Federico Garcia Lorca’s “Blood Wedding” a few times to take it all in. While the theater does provide surtitles, reading them means missing much of the action below.

Hugo Medrano’s direction of the classic 1932 romantic tragedy excels in sheer beauty and with emotional pull. Giorgio Tsappas’ sparse, arid set design and Martha Mountain and Klyph Stanford’s stage lighting transport the audience to Andalusia, the setting for a doomed wedding between a woman still grappling with her affections for a former paramour, and a virile young lad who, despite his mother’s reticence about the bride, is madly in love.”*
