Inspirada en una historia real, Bodas de Sangre nos lleva a la Andalucía de 1930, donde una futura novia escapa a las restricciones de su arreglada boda para estar con su amante.

Venga a conocer a los actores el día 20 de enero en la biblioteca de Midland (1 p.m.) o Gresham (3 p.m.).

Inspired by a true story, Bodas de Sangre takes us to 1930s Andalucía, where a young bride-to-be yearns to escape the constraints of an arranged marriage to be with her lover. Bodas de Sangre will be presented in the original Spanish featuring Teatro Español, the only Spanish-language acting ensemble in the Pacific Northwest (with supertitles projected in English on some nights).
