The House of Bernarda Alba - The Dulwich Players (18-21 Feb)


Recommended Posts

The Dulwich Players are excited to stage a new translation of Federico Garc?a Lorca?s masterpiece The House of Bernarda Alba from 18-21 February (8pm) at the Edward Alleyn Theatre.


Obsessed with respectability and honour, Bernarda Alba rules her house with a rod of iron. Her second husband has just died and in line with family tradition she declares an eight-year period of mourning, effectively incarcerating her daughters. Feelings run high when it is discovered not only that the eldest daughter from Bernarda's first marriage has inherited a large amount of money, but that she is now set to marry the most eligible man in the village, Pepe el Romano, who has transferred his affections from the headstrong youngest daughter, Adela, to the much older Angustias. Despite warnings, Bernarda refuses to see the destructive forces at play within her household until it is too late.


A powerful and compelling new translation of Lorca's master work.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
