By Federico García Lorca. Translated by Jo Clifford. A Royal Exchange Theatre and Graeae Theatre Company co-production, February 2017

We will brick up the doors and board up the windows.
We won’t let in a breath of air from the street.

Renowned performer Kathryn Hunter plays Bernarda in Lorca’s final masterpiece – a bitter and darkly comic tragedy that charts the tyranny, jealousy and desperate struggle for freedom that will tear Bernarda and her daughters apart.

This was the first major co-production between the Royal Exchange Theatre and Graeae Theatre Company.
