−	''[[Blood Wedding]]'' is the English version of ''[[Bodas de Sangre]]'', a tragedy by Spanish dramatic author Frederico Garcia Lorca (1898-1936)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federico_Garc%C3%ADa_Lorca].
−
−	~~== The original text ==~~
−
−	~~It was written in 1932 and first performed in Madrid in March 1933 and later that year in Buenos Aires.~~
−
−	Some themes present in ''[[Blood Wedding]]'' are the cycle of life, the progression of time, choice, deception, fate, and nature. The cycle of life and progression of time are illustrated by the simple fact that the entire play is devoted to a wedding. The process of marriage in every culture marks the concrete and tangible evidence of a passage from childhood to adulthood, and a progression through life and time. Theatre critics have often grouped it with ''[[Yerma]]'' and ''[[The House of Bernarda Alba]]'' as a "rural trilogy". Lorca's plan for a "trilogy of the Spanish earth" remained unfinished at the time of his death.
