Electra
by Euripides, Translated by Anne Carson
Directed by Javier González

Thursday October 15, 8pm EDT
Friday October 16, 8pm EDT
Saturday October 17, 3pm & 8pm EDT

After ten years away from home, Electra's little brother, Orestes, has returned to the cursed palace committed to his role: that of murdering his own mother. Electra sustains a mourning ritual for her murdered father for all to see, as she awaits her brother's foretold arrival. Electra is the climax in a family's ongoing cycle of revenge. In the hands of Anne Carson, the tragedy is an urgent retelling, ripe with poetic humor and truth.
