After a successful run at the ADC Theatre in Cambridge, we are trying to raise money to help cover production costs!
Seven years after the bloody coup for the throne, the kingdom of Mycenae holds its breath as the new queen and her lover enslave Agamemnon's remaining children as captives: among them, his youngest daughter Electra, who has called on her brother to swear revenge for her father. But doubt hangs thick in the air; time is running out. The House of Atreus is cursed; the gods have set the stage for its fall. One house, one family, one day. What does it take to reveal the brutal limits of human vengeance?
Famously adapted by the three great Greek tragedians, Irisa Kwok slices open this ancient parable to reveal a cycle of generation trauma that stems from the injustices of imperial conquest, and violence on the queer body.
Following a successful run at the ADC Theatre, Cambridge, we are a group of students bringing the production to the Fringe this August! We are performing from the 4th-12th August, at Willow Studio, Greenside @ Riddle's Court. The money raised from this Crowdfunder will help us with covering the costs of travel, accommodation and rehearsal spaces in our final preparations for Edinburgh!
