SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
When The Bridge of San Luis Rey breaks, five travellers are
precipitated into the gulf below. Was it chance or the hand
of God that brought these five together at that fatal time
in that place? Or were they in some way responsible, themselves,
for what happened? These questions are raised with uncynical
compassion and answered by Wilder with an indirect affirmation
of the power of love.
Set in early 18th century Peru at the height of the Spanish
Inquisition, this timeless story of delicately interwoven
lives traverses worlds as diverse as the theatres, convents,
brothels and docks of Lima, Peru to the sea-faring explorations,
scientific institutions and courts of Madrid, Spain.
"Soon, we too shall die and all memory of those five
will have left the earth, and we ourselves shall be loved
for a while and forgotten, There is a land of the living and
a land of the dead, and the bridge is love, the only survival,
the only meaning." (Thornton Wilder, 1927)
