Blood Wedding- #7

I think Lorca breaks the fourth wall in Act two scene two with the use of the maid. The maid says her lines poetically and wit pathos and is addressing no one. Her lines give more insight into the play and what is happening and what will happen later in the play. The effect created from doing this lets the audience see that the play is not real and pulls them away from the plot and the story and allows them to consider what the play is actually about and try and interpret what Lorca is trying to say. It also takes away from the serious and depressing mood of the play and allows the audience time to collect themselves for the rest of the play.
