“Theater is poetry that rises from the book and becomes human enough to talk and shout, weep and despair.” — Federico García Lorca
Experimental, highly-symbolized, and surrealistic, When Five Years Pass begins with a seemingly real scene of a young man sharing his troubled love story. It quickly progresses into a series of chaotic dream fragments: a dead child, a gender mysterious cat, a mannequin longing for motherhood. These are poetically woven together in Lorca's exploration of sexuality, desire, death, and frustration under the restrictions of the patriarchal world.
