Yerma

As Federico García Lorca repeatedly stated, "Yerma" is a tragedy with a single theme (the sterile woman) and a character in progressive development. Through the long dramatic time, Yerma desperately struggles with her truth, which becomes more and more conflictive and does not stop until it is consummated. The final resolution, the death of her husband, is the last defense of her impossible dream and a resounding affirmation of her tragic destiny in the face of blind fate.

Premiered in March 2019 at the International Women's Theatre Festival in Miami.
