Set in a quiet village on the edge of Salisbury Plain, this gripping new adaptation of Lorca’s Blood Wedding, reimagined by Barney Norris, dives into the emotional chaos surrounding a seemingly joyful occasion. As a wedding approaches, unease begins to bubble beneath the surface. Georgie, just 22 and ready to marry Rob, finds herself haunted by unresolved feelings for her ex, Lee—setting the stage for a dangerous unraveling of secrets, desires, and suppressed truths.

Norris brings a sharp contemporary lens to Lorca’s powerful themes of passion, repression, and fate. Rooted in the universal struggle between following one’s heart and fulfilling societal expectations, this dark comedy explores what happens when buried emotions rise to the surface. With its raw energy and emotional intensity, the play asks: in a world full of compromises, can we ever truly act on our deepest desires?
