The Spanish title of Federico GarcРЅa Lorca's great modernist play is Bodas de Sangre, or 'Wedding of Blood'. The title and theme came from a murder committed in 1928 in the town of Nijar in the Spanish province of AlmerРЅa, when a young woman, Francisca CaСЃada Morales, ran off with her cousin, Francisco Montes CaСЃada, moments before her wedding to a local man. The cousin was then shot dead by the prospective bridegroom's brother. Lorca read about the incident in the Heraldo de Madrid newspaper and kept the cutting until he came to write the play in 1932.
