THINK: sensitivity to towards other issues, pressure of modern society, appearance vs
reality

LEARN: people to recognise it’s a play that loss of people is affected by society, vulnerability
of the human mind, people have different ways of expression emotions, see the connection
between modern day and society back then. Expectation that men can’t show emotion.
Question their on morals - codes and life.

recognise that this is still relevant today.

With my production of Yerma, I aim too… make my audience feel empathy and connect with
yerma as a character and think about the pressure on modern society so that when they
leave the theatre they recognise that people have different ways of expressing emotions.

Lorca was influenced by expressionism and surrealism. He wanted his productions to have:
