Extra Information Chamber opera. Lorca’s poetic drama of 1931 explores themes of frustrated love, personal identity, decay and death; yet it does so in the manner of a fairy tale, clothed in fun and topsy-turviness. It confuses the nature of time and reality and, in the process, examines the illusion of theatre. This operatic version is a free translation and adaptation of Lorca's text.
