PONCIA
About this event
Poncia Inside a fog storm, Poncia, the maid of Bernarda Alba, prays for the death of Adela. The house has sunk into a sea of silence. Poncia speaks alone and also with Bernarda and her daughters. It is the performance of a text written from the interventions of the Poncia character in Lorca's play. Through a deep analysis of the character, I rescue her interventions and turn them into reflection, soliloquies, dialogues with ghosts and shadows.
This text is based on the interventions of the Poncia character in the work of Federico García Lorca. In a deep analysis of the character, I have rescued the interventions of Poncia and turned them into reflection, soliloquies, dialogues with ghosts and shadows. Thus, a new look inside the house is illuminated. In the original work we witness a sequence of events that unfolds in chronological order. Here, in Poncia, it does not. She speaks after the shock produced by Adela's suicide. All takes place after her death.
Poncia's tongue loosens in a place and time forbidden for words. Poncia settles scores with the inhabitants who survive inside the house. We discover Poncia's sympathy for the younger daughter, she advocates for her.
This text uses as its basis the interventions of the Poncia character in Lorca's work. It has rescued Poncia's interventions and turned them into reflection, soliloquies, dialogues with ghosts and shadows.
