Se Julia Dufvenius och Tanja Lorentzon i Bernardas hus på Dramaten!

I änkan Bernardas hus hålls fem frustrerade döttrar och en senil mormor instängda. Döttrarna ska inte andas frisk luft eller se solens ljus på 8 år för att sörja sin döda far, har Bernarda bestämt.

Den äldsta dottern, ”Angustias”, spelad av Tanja Lorentzon, hoppas på att komma ur det klaustrofobiska fängelset mamman skapat genom att gifta sig med ”Pepe Romano” runt vilka de alla svärmar. Hon är egentligen för gammal och ful, men är den enda av systrarna med pengar nog att locka en make. Den yngsta dottern ”Adela” (Julia Dufvenius) - ännu vacker och i giftasålder – konkurrerar och intrigerar för att vinna honom för sig själv. Hot, skvaller, elakheter och våld är det fullt av i Bernardas hus. Spelas på Dramatens lilla scen i Directed by av Christian Tomner.
