The Butterfly's Evil Spell

Federico Garcia Lorca's first play flopped after four performances. I can see why it's too experimental for its own good. I didn't hate it. I thought it was interesting at least. It's about a cockroach that has a thing for a butterfly that doesn't return its affections. Lorca was so embarrassed that he said that it wasn't his first play afterwards. At least it showed the promise of what was to be one of Spain's greatest playwrights. 2.5/5
