Four Stars for Blood Wedding at The Young Vic

News Theatre

Following Press Night, Marina Carr‘s adaptation of Lorca’s Blood Wedding directed by YaΓ«l Farber, has received a great deal of praise and four stars from The Guardian and The Times.

Writing for The Guardian, Arifa Akbar praises the ‘visceral production’ for ‘retaining all the potency of Lorca’s play’. In the Financial Times, Alice Saville praises Carr’s play for its ‘stylised, poetic approach exerting a magic of its own, unfaltering as moonlight, its promise realised in a final blood sacrifice.

Play by Marina Carr, with Music Composition by Isobel Waller-Bridge.

Tickets available here.
