Spanish Plays
A collection of modern Spanish plays in translations made by practising English playwrights. Sergei Belbel's Caresses paints a disturbing picture of contemporary society against a background of urban alienation. In The Scorched Garden by Juan Mayorga, a group of inmates in a mental hospital unveil their histories and madness. Bazaar by David Planell addresses the immigrant experience in Spain as undercurrents of racism surface in the course of a hilarious attempt to get an accident video shown on a You've Been Framed style TV programme. Set in contemporary Seville, Antonio Onetti's Bleeding Hearts portrays a naive, middle-aged transvestite who encounters a petty thief nicknamed sour face. Rodeo by Lluisa Cunille is a study of obsession and delusion. And in Wolf's Kiss, Paloma Pedrero portrays a young woman returning to her rural village home to await her Parisian lover despite the hostility of the villagers.
