Yerma 1

Rajesh Gopie directed Yerma, by Federico Garcia Lorca @ Wits University in 2015, where I served as director/lecturer and scholar in residence. The cast comprised of undergraduate students in the Theatre and Performance Studies Department at the time. It entailed a multi-pronged process of corporeal training, improvisation and formal rehearsals over a seven week period. I am grateful to the Video and Film department at Wits University for the filming of the play. Enjoy!
