The play opens against a backdrop of fog and stormy weather: Poncia, Bernarda Alba's maid, prays for Adela's death. The house is shrouded in silence, and Poncia speaks alone, yet at the same time to Bernarda Alba and her daughters. The result is a monologue that evokes the characters from Federico García Lorca's world through Poncia's perspective.
The text and direction are by Luis Luque, and the production was staged by Jesús Cimarro. Mónica Boromello is responsible for the set design, whilst the lighting was designed by Paco Ariza. The costumes are by Almudena Rodríguez, and the original music is by Luis Miguel Cobo.
