At 5:39 am on the morning of June 25, 1937, a young Basque poet was shot, a few months after the death of another great poet: Federico García Lorca. Lorca and Lauaxeta. Two iconic Spanish poets, from very different backgrounds and parts of Spain, who shared the same death. What few people realise, even in Spain, is that their paths did in fact cross…
This interesting and unusual play, includes some text in Basque, and uses music, poetry, dance and flamenco to explore the influence of the Andalusian poet in the work of the emblematic Basque poet.
