The Agencia Andaluza de Instituciones Culturales in collaboration with the Alhambra founded a programme called Lorca y Granada.

The performances have taken place in the Generalife Gardens since 2002.

The leading figure of Federico García Lorca and the knowledge of his work all over the world are joined with the evocative power of flamenco to make the perfect formula for this artistic proposal.

The Alhambra serves as an extraordinary space for a great technical and artistic performance that inspires, every summer, the expectatives that society has about the world of culture: artistic, touristic, cultural industry and the connection with the audience. This summer the performance is directed by Marina Heredia.

This performance seeks to answer the question: What is love?. And it does so through a reflection on feminine love in the universe of Lorca.

The performance consists of 4 different pieces, seamlessly interwoven without interruptions, going from 'El Público' to 'La Casa de Bernarda Alba', continuing with 'Así que pasen cinco años' and ending with 'Mariana Pineda'.

The performance alternates the most modern and least known works by Federico García Lorca.
