An actress invokes the presence of the poet and playwright Federico García Lorca to explore his life, his work, and his legacy. Through this connection, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery.
In an intimate dialogue with the audience, she brings to life the women of his plays and, in doing so, gradually reveals her own story. The protagonist navigates between admiration and the need to define herself in the face of an impossible and deeply symbolic love.
The play intertwines Lorca's artistic universe with his personal story: his profound connection with the lives of women, his silenced homosexuality, and his assassination at the hands of the Franco regime. Themes that, far from belonging only to the past, engage in a dialogue with the present and prompt us to ask: have the times of persecution, subjugation, and segregation been left behind, or do they continue to resonate today?
Federico, My Love is both a personal tribute to an artist who transformed theater and defied the norms of his time, and the journey of a contemporary woman who, in finding him, ultimately finds herself.
The production includes excerpts from some of his most seminal plays, such as The House of Bernarda Alba, Blood Wedding, Doña Rosita the Spinster, and Yerma, alongside poems and quotes from the poet himself.
