The Lorca Woman

University of Washington Abstract The Lorca Woman Olga Kravtsova Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Jeffrey Fracé School of Drama The Lorca Woman is a piece about a woman’s journey through the obstacles of life and social barriers in order to gain acceptance from “the audience” and herself. This piece explores the ability of women to wear many faces, and to take up different roles depending on what the situation asks of them. This process explores both societal and familial pressures which women constantly face. The Lorca Woman piece unfolds the moment when an important decision needs to be made and what personalities inside the woman are coming to life; the characters summoned by the pressures above. The presented piece is a work in progress, an abstract depiction inspired by the play The House of Bernarda Alba by F.G. Lorca.
