The Children of Herakles is by Euripides and directed by Peter Sellars. After their father's death, the children of Herakles are exiled from their home by a hostile regime. They flee from country to country in search of sanctuary, finding every border closed to them. Twenty-four hundred years old, Euripides' investigation of the plight of refugees could have been written this morning.
