What is currently on at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre (V165)

Oresteia

OresteiaT310265808
Orestes is the ultimate tragic figure, caught between his duty to avenge his father's murder at his mother's hand, and the loyalty a son owes to his mother. He kills his mother and is relentlessly pursued by furies. Athena provides the refuge and counsel of healing.
Author Aeschylus
