4The dames -Maria Miró, Serena Pérez and Marina Pardo- are very efficient in a magnificent joint service.
Marina Pardo takes a suave, boulevardier stance as Lorca. Though he is a poet of the people and includes much traditional Spanish folklore in his plays, the Lorca we see is debonair in a perfect pin-striped suit and with perfect manners. Pardo gives him a veneer of seriousness and conveys some melancholy. Her singing is as rich as Montenegro’s and like Montenegro, her portrayal is complete to the extent Hwang will let it be. I would have liked to felt more empathy with Lorca at the time of his imminent demise. Pardo plays him a being accepting of what is about to befall him. More agitation or more challenge to Lorca’s captors would have gone a long way towards making the execution scene more affecting.
