Details

This beautiful production brings together the most talented principal actors in Greece with a chorus of young British performers to create an evening of theatre, dance and song. Drawing on Greek tragedy, lyric poetry, folk songs and music, the actors explore the experience of growing up and coming of age: the innocence and harsh experiences of a childhood spent amidst the wars and struggles of adults. Highlights include translated verses from Ion, Trojan Women and Iphigenia in Aulis by Euripides, poetry by Sappho and verses from Oedipus by Sophocles. Performed in English.
