House of Bernarda Alba

You bring such scandal to my house.

In the domain of Bernarda Alba, a daughter who disobeys is no longer a daughter. Forced to live under their mother''s tight grip as they mourn their father''s death, can five sisters survive when young Adela dares for passion and freedom?

Olivier Award-winner Harriet Walter (Succession) plays the formidable matriarch, guarding her reputation against the rising tide of her family''s desires in this pitch-black drama exploring the consequences of oppressing women, in Alice Birch''s radical new version of Federico Garc a Lorca''s modern masterpiece.

This edition published to coincide with the world premiere at the National Theatre, London, in November 2023.
