Fatal Attraction: A Greek Tragedy

Fatal Attraction: A Greek Tragedy spoofs on the 1987 thriller, Fatal Attraction starring Glenn Close, Michael Douglas and Anne Archer. The story tells the tale of an extra-marital affair gone wrong when the “other woman” proves to be a psychotic stalker. The basic plot of the movie is retold, with a touch of humor. Adding to the hilarity, a Greek chorus guides and comments on the action, deriving it’s commentary from a variety of classical sources including: Medea, The Heracleidae, Alcestis, Hippolytus by Euripides and the more contemporary Home and Health and Home Economics by C.H. Fowler and W.H. De Puy. To top it off, there is a dream ballet and director, Bill Arnold adds some original music.
