·         Irene Rimer "La Chata" as The Bride 

Based on a true story of love, lust, and betrayal, Blood Wedding is one of the most powerful and innovative plays written this century. Federico Garcia Lorca wrote his best known play years after reading a newspaper account of a young bride in Andalusia who abandoned her husband-to-be on their wedding day to escape with her childhood sweetheart. Lorca evokes the spectacle of human passion through sophisticated and often surrealistic poetic technique, elevating the love story to a tragedy of fate.  Irene Rimer (The Bride) & Corazon Flamenco will “tell” the story through acting & dance!.

This show requires 4 to 5 months notice

Every one evokes a diverse mood that is seamlessly integrated into a moving tapestry of enthralling but restrained human feeling.  Gypsies sing and recite of the cruelty and deceptions of love.  Two lovers (Candela and Carmelo), at last freed from the stifling burdens of their past, emerge from a night of sorcery to face the wondrous splendor of a new dawn
