Synopsis

The Trojan war is over.

Orestes and Electra have killed their mother.

The city wants them dead.

Just when it seems like they have nowhere to turn, their best friend comes up with a plan...

Ironic, desperate, humorous, and highly entertaining, this potent satire on the Oresteia myth brings this marvelous play to new life.
