This classic Greek tragedy tells the story of the ultimate ultimate sacrifice that a family must make in the name of one man's ego. The Greek fleet assembles in the bay of Aulis prepared to launch an attack on Troy, but the wind suddenly drops and the ships stand idle. The army blames their leader who, in danger of losing his command, panics and jumps to a solution: to sacrifice his own daughter in return for a favorable wind. Utilizing the tension between a cold, harsh, propaganda-filled, war-hungry world and the women who enter it, this production explores the ease with which Clytemnestra and Iphigenia are transformed from dutiful wife and innocent child to murderer and warrior by a single event.
