"El Público" is a play written by the Spanish playwright Federico García Lorca in 1930. It explores themes of identity, desire, and societal norms through a surreal narrative. The story revolves around a group of characters who confront their inner conflicts and societal expectations, ultimately challenging traditional views on love and sexuality. The play is notable for its avant-garde style and its reflection of Lorca's own struggles with his identity as a gay man in a conservative society. Although it was not performed during his lifetime, "El Público" has gained recognition for its bold exploration of taboo subjects and its influence on modern theater.
