Show and ticket information for Bacchae play at Olivier (National Theatre), West End.

This ain't no classic play b*tches The Bacchae aren't standing on the sidelines whilst the men have all the fun. These fangirls may be a pack but they're not animals... They are stage-storming powerhouses ready to cause chaos in Thebes. Whilst the Bacchae maraud in the mountains, their god Dionysos is taking part in his own f*cked-up family Olympics. He's here to bring down his cousin King Pentheus. All to prove to the chorus of women that he's more than just the god of rhyme, wine and a good time.
