Clytemnestra
Gate Theatre, London
April - May 2016
Written by Lulu Raczka, inspired by Iphigenia at Aulis by Euripides
“She comes in and she breaks the play.
She walks on stage and the play breaks.
Though she pretends at first and she plays along with the men
With the men’s little game of politics
She plays their game”
A formally experimental new play examining the character of Clytemnestra, from the classic myth by Euripides. Part of the Iphigenia Quartet.
