Loved Blood Wedding and Yerma, didn't really enjoy Bernarda Alba. These are intimate, poetic plays about women. It would usually bother me that all the female characters are desperate for marriage and babies, but because Lorca uses those desires to make other, darker points about loneliness and control, and because the stories seem so far outside our time and place, it didn't.

Love the drama of it all (no pun intended), full of feminine energy
