Upon her second husband's death, Bernarda Alba, a dominating woman, imposes an 8-year mourning period on her household, as has been her family tradition. Bernarda has 5 daughters, aged between 20 and 39, whom she has controlled inexorably and prohibited from any form of relationship.
The mourning period further isolates them and tension mounts within the household. After a mourning ritual at the family home, eldest daughter Angustias enters, having been absent while the guests were there. Bernarda fumes, assuming she had been listening to the men's conversation on the patio. Angustias inherited a large sum of money from her father, Bernarda's first husband, but her second husband has left only small amounts to his 4 daughters. Angustias' wealth attracts a young, attractive suitor from their village, Pepe el Romano. With Adela out of earshot, Martirio tells everyone else that Pepe actually fled on his pony.
Bernarda remarks that as a woman she can't be blamed for poor aim. A shot is heard, immediately she calls for Adela, who has locked herself into a room.

When Adela doesn't respond, Bernarda and Poncia force the door open. Soon Poncia's shriek is heard. She returns with her hands clasped around her neck and warns the family not to enter the room. Adela, not knowing that Pepe survived, has hanged herself. The closing lines of the play show Bernarda characteristically preoccupied with the family's reputation. She insists that Adela has died a virgin and demands that this be made known to the whole town.
The text implies that Adela and Pepe had an affair; Bernarda's moral code and pride keep this from registering. No one is there to cry. In , choreographer Eleo Pomare adapted the play into his ballet, Las Desenamoradas , [7] featuring music by John Coltrane.
