About This Show

OBIE Award-winning playwright Robert O’Hara returns to A.C.T. with Good Breeding, directed by Timothy Douglas.

Sex, murder, revenge — it’s all fair game in this extravagant new adaptation of the Greek Oresteia. In a wildly erotic staging, A.C.T. shifts the tale of the curse of the House of Atreus to a decadent, hypnotic world evoking New York’s infamous Studio 54.

Dangerously brutal and deftly feminist in its point of view, Good Breeding pits merciless gods against man in a searing vision of lust, love, and power. This production features nudity and strong language, and is suggested for mature audiences only.
