Following the gangland execution of her husband, the formidable matriarch Bernarda Alba will do anything to safeguard her family's dubious fortune and the future of her five daughters. A deal is struck - a marriage of convenience between her eldest girl and the son of a business rival. All Bernarda has to do is ensure that the wedding happens, and quickly. Five headstrong daughters cooped up in the family home in an emotionally charged atmosphere of bitter rivalry and repressed sexuality make that an epic challenge.

'It is the most Spanish of plays, a powerful example of that almost untranslatable element in Spanish art, duende: an almost magical sense of the soul, at once anguished, yearning and exhilarated...one feels it in Lorca's play'
Mark Brown, Sunday Herald, 27.9.09
'Rona Munro's bold translation for the National Theatre of Scotland is not the gimmick it may sound. This is a portrait of an all-female household cocooned from teh outside world by a domineering mother and fear of the paparazzi.'
Mark Fisher, Guardian, 21.9.09
