| − | Blood Wedding (Spanish: Bodas de Sangre) is a tragedy by the Spanish dramatist Federico García Lorca. 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. It was written in 1932 and first performed in Madrid in March 1933 and later that year in Buenos Aires. 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
