Lola

Overview

Lola is a play about the memory of memory itself. Through the story of a teenager, it recounts the experiences of the Rodal Blanco family during the Civil War and the repression they suffered. Lola was 15 years old when, after the coup d'état of 1936, she saw her family and social world collapse. Without the protection of her mother or father, she was left completely alone with her little sister. They practically lived begging on the streets, and even so, they managed to keep their family alive in prison by sending them packages in the mail.
