Euripides was the son of a retailer - Mnesarchus. When he was a boy the Oracle predicted that he would "win crowns of victory" - so his father had him enrolled in a school for athletics. His victories, however, were all on the stage. He served as a ritualistic dancer and torch bearer. Both his wives were unfaithful. He became a recluse and lived in a cave - which was well furnished with books. In his later life he went to live at the court of King Archelaus of Macedonia where he died.

Notes: | Original Playwright - Euripides | |||||
At once a vigorous translation of one of Euripides' most subtle and witty plays, and a wholly fresh interpretation, this version reveals for the first time the extraordinary formal beauty and thematic concentration of the Alcestis. William Arrowsmith, eminent classical scholar, translator, and General Editor of this highly praised series, rejects the standard view of the Alcestis as a psychological study of the egotist Admetos and his naive but devoted wife. His translation, instead, presents the play as a drama of human existence--in keeping with the tradition of Greek tragedy--with recognizably human characters who also represent masked embodiments of human conditions. The Alcestis thus becomes a metaphysical tragicomedy in which Admetos, who has heretofore led a life without limitations, learns to "think mortal thoughts." He acquires the knowledge of limits--the acceptance of death as well as the duty to live--which, according to Euripides, makes people meaningfully human and capable of both courage and compassion. This new interpretation compellingly argues that, for Euripides, suffering humanizes, that exemption makes a man selfish and childish, and that only the courage to accept both life and death leads to the realization of one's humanity, and, in the case of Alcestis, to heroism. | ||||||

Synopsis: | A Walk on the Wild Side! Stroll into The Ally Way! Exuberant, over-the-top look at our present joys and fears! Should a wife sacrifice herself for her husband even if he is not worth it? Should a man serve a government whether it's just or not? Laugh your way to the answers. Robert Salerno's brilliant direction of Marianne McDonald's irreverent version of Euripides' Alcestis, The Ally Way, shows how men and women need each other in spite of (and sometimes because of) their differences. | |||||

Synopsis: | An absurdist take on Iphigenia at Aulis, set in a realm of lost childhood. A restless army entertains itself with video games and sitcoms, while waiting for the wind that would carry their ships to war. In this existential space of paralysing doubt, indecision, and anticlimax, a march toward unstoppable violence grows inevitable. -- | |||||

When a new god - the god of the life force, the god of sensuality, wine and the dance, the god that other religions fear - arrives in a buttoned-down world, he finds a leader who no longer believes in a power higher than himself, who will do whatever it takes to preserve the status quo. But this society is a ticking time bomb, revolution is in the air and the people are desperate for change. A band of sisters are ready to explode and destroy everyone and everything that gets in their way in Mike Poulton's all-new version of this DARK and LIBERATING play, co-conceived with choreographer Mark Bruce and director Braham Murray. | ||||||

Synopsis: | Present day geopolitics clash with ancient, mystical tragedy in this transposition of Euripides' play to the present-day green zone in Baghdad. In the original, the Theban leader Pentheus and the vengeance-seeking half-god Dionysus are cousins who each have some rightful claim on the city. Makes Pentheus the swaggering, tyrannical leader of US forces in Iraq.The argument is skewed irrevocably in the favour of Dionysusplayed as a Middle East-accented, dreadlocked hottie whose powers manifest in his ability to make the Bacchants whirl like dervishes to a groovy world music beat as flames shoot out of the urn containing his mother's ashes. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Euripides. With Blood Wedding and Hedda Gabler, The Bacchae forms part of 2012's unique trilogy of plays, Festival of Chaos. A two month celebration in Northampton, the Festival explores the contemporary relevance of the god Dionysus. | |||||
Synopsis: | As the god of dance, ecstasy and chaos, Dionysus is a symbol of the raw, primal urges that are often in conflict with civilising forces of order and control. Festival Of Chaos explores the forgotten power of Dionysus, and invites him back to tear apart the comfort and conventions of our material world. A startling new version of Euripides' Greek tragedy The Bacchae opens the Festival of Chaos trilogy and explores a society teetering on the brink of revolution. Staged in a secret location in Northampton and featuring a spectacular original score, audiences are plunged into a frenzied and theatrical world, as Dionysus himself returns to take revenge on a city that's forgotten him. | |||||

Regarded by many as Euripides' masterpiece, Bakkhai is a powerful examination of religious ecstasy and the resistance to it. A call for moderation, it rejects the temptation of pure reason as well as pure sensuality, and is a staple of Greek tragedy, representing in structure and thematics an exemplary model of the classic tragic elements. Disguised as a young holy man, the god Bacchus arrives in Greece from Asia proclaiming his godhood and preaching his orgiastic religion. He expects to be embraced in Thebes, but the Theban king, Pentheus, forbids his people to worship him and tries to have him arrested. Enraged, Bacchus drives Pentheus mad and leads him to the mountains, where Pentheus' own mother, Agave, and the women of Thebes tear him to pieces in a Bacchic frenzy. | ||||||

Dionysos, son of Zeus, enters Thebes disguised as a tall, good-looking stranger. To exact revenge for his dead mother's sullied reputation, he coerces the city's women into his cult, where to worship the god is to abandon the drudgery of civilized life for rapturous ecstasy-dancing, singing, drinking wine, slaughtering wild creatures and eating their flesh and blood. When all the women have run wild on the mountain, the priggish Theban king Pentheus acts to arrest the charismatic stranger and capture the women. Once in custody, the god plays on Pentheus' repressed lusts and desires to first disorient and then destroy him. | ||||||

Brimming with lusty comedy and horror, this new version of Euripides' only extant satyr play has been refreshed with all the salty humor, vigorous music, and dramatic shapeliness available in modern American English. Driven by storms onto the shores of the Cyclops' island, Odysseus and his men find that the Cyclops has already enslaved a company of Greeks. When some of Odysseus' crew are seized and eaten by the Cyclops, Odysseus resorts to spectacular stratagems to free his crew and escape the island. | ||||||

Synopsis: | Returning from the Trojan War, Odysseus and his men come ashore on an island to search for provisions. Roaming inland they find a cave and ransack it. They then encounter a band of horny satyrs, who warn them that the one-eyed giant Polyphemous (a Cyclops) will soon return. He does, trapping them all in his cave, then begins to eat them, one by one. Odysseus distracts, and soon inebriates Polyphemous with wine from his ship's larder. Once the Cyclops falls asleep, Odysseus and his men sharpen a thick pole, heat it in Polyphemous' campfire, and ram it sizzling into his huge eye. Blinded, Polyphemous is helpless to prevent the Greeks from slipping out of his cave. They immediately return to their ship; Polyphemous hurls a huge boulder after them, which nearly capsizes the escaping Greeks. | |||||

This vital translation of Euripides' Electra recreates the prize-winning excitement of the original play. Electra, obsessed by dreams of avenging her father's murder, impatiently awaits the return of her exiled brother Orestes. When he arrives, the play mounts toward its first climax, a tender recognition scene. From that moment on, Electra uses Orestes as her instrument of vengeance. They kill their mother's husband, then their mother herself--and only afterward see the evil inherent in these seemingly just acts. But in his usual fashion, Euripides has imbued myth with the reality of human experience, counterposing suspense and horror with comic realism and down-to-earth comments on life. | ||||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Euripides. Part of "The Greeks" | |||||
"As a dramatist, Tom McGrath's great strength is to pare things down to the fewest possible words, the sparsest settings, only the most elemental action. His extraordinary stroke with Electra is to seize on the brevities of Greek tragedy and whittle them down even further. The result: a lethal little piece, bristling with menacing meanings and consequences, representing a total minefield. We watch in horror as the characters blunder through it. His Electra is self-righteously correct, mad and disastrous. His Orestes, rather than god-enlightened, is a hesitant teenager blinded by a vision of new beginnings. All the characters have a dubious mixture of self-deluding, self-interested and high-minded motives. All are fatally credulous, believing messengers and messages even less reliably credentialed than CNN, Fox or the BBC. This piece zings with more compressed meaning than many ten times its length. It resonates powerfully for all of us watching similar stories unfolding in the Middle East, Congo, Rwanda, the USA and Northern Ireland." | ||||||

This tragedy is a portrait of the defeated Queen of Troy, who transforms from grieving mother to cruel avenger to monster in the course of the play. The press release says, "Her fortitude in defeat is contrasted with the machinations of the victorious Greeks, and it is the Eastern monarchy, not the Western democracy, that draws our admiration and pity." | ||||||

Synopsis: | Directed by Esther Emery. The Great War is over. Troy has fallen and the victorious Greek coalition forces are on their way home. Hecuba, once queen of Troy, now a prisoner of war, is being transported back to Athens with other war booty, the women of Troy. Having lost her home, her husband and most of her children, what does this proud and brave woman do when she is asked by her captors to give up her daughter's life having discovered on the same day that her only surviving son has been murdered? One of the most powerful and intense dramas ever written, a play which celebrates the courage and bravery of Hecuba and the women of Troy as they struggle to survive, a play which asks important questions about how the victors of war deal with the vanquished, a play about what happens to human beings when they lose all hope?. | |||||

Synopsis: | Euripides himself certainly shows humanity at the end of its tether: the captive Trojan queen, having seen her daughter sacrificed and her son butchered by his Thracian protector, savagely exacts revenge. And Frank McGuinness's new version matches the story's violence with visceral language. Hecuba's daughter tells her mother "you will see your lamb ripped from you." the chorus announces "the gods have scalded the sons of Priam." Hecuba herself dismisses the wriggling Thracian king as a "barbaric thug". - Guardian | |||||

This tragedy is a portrait of the defeated Queen of Troy, who transforms from grieving mother to cruel avenger to monster in the course of the play. The press release says, "Her fortitude in defeat is contrasted with the machinations of the victorious Greeks, and it is the Eastern monarchy, not the Western democracy, that draws our admiration and pity." | ||||||

Synopsis: | Everyone knows the story of Helen of Troy, wife of Menelaus, mistress of Paris, whose face launched 1,000 ships. But what if Helen never actually made it to Troy? 'That story is not true. You never sailed in the benched ships. You never went to the city of Troy,' wrote the 6th century poet Stesichorus. Instead, he proposes, she remained pure and safe in Egypt while her phantom, or eidolon, went on to Troy. What is the story of that Helen, the one who could only watch from the sidelines as cities were burned and epics sung? Inspired by such questions, Euripides's tragedy Helen is presented with this alternate, Egypt-bound version | |||||

n Herakles, Euripides reveals with great subtlety and complexity the often brutal underpinnings of our social arrangements. The play enacts a thoroughly contemporary dilemma about the relationship between personal and state violence to civic order . Of all of Euripides' plays, this is his most skeptically subversive examination of myth, morality, and power. The play depicts Herakles being driven mad by Hera, the wife of Zeus. Hera hates Herakles because he is one of Zeus' children born of adultery. In his madness, Herakles is driven to murder his own wife and children, and he eventually exiles himself to Athens. The volume includes a new translation, an introduction, notes on the text, and a glossary. | ||||||

Hippolytos, son of the hero King Theseus, spends his days tracking game and reveling in his chastity; both activities honor the goddess Artemis. They also infuriate Aphrodite, the goddess of sexuality, who opens the play by confiding to the audience her intention to destroy this insolent young man. Aphrodite intends to use Phaidra, Theseus' wife and Hippolytos' stepmother, as her weapon, and inspires in Phaidra a virulent lust for Hippolytos. Unwilling to proposition her stepson face-to-face, Phaidra allows her maid to act as go-between. When Hippolytos hears that Phaidra desires him he not only rejects her but excoriates the entire female sex as depraved, deceitful, and desperate. Humiliated, Phaidra commits suicide and exacts her revenge on Hippolytos by leaving a note to Theseus claiming that Hippolytos has raped her. Devasted, Theseus deploys a magical prayer to Poseidon, asking the god to kill his son. | ||||||

The Goddess Aphrodite is angry that Hippolytus worships Artemis and not her. So she makes Hippolytus' stepmother Phaedra to fall in love with him. When Phaedra discovers what has happened she commits suicide but not before leaving a suicide note in which she says Hippolytus raped her. Theseus asks his father Poseidon to punish Hippolytus who has him killed. Artemis who knew the truth and could have intervened then tells Theseus what really happened | ||||||

a compelling look at the devastating consequence of `man's inhumanity to man'. A stern critique of Greek culture, Iphigeneia at Aulis condemns the Trojan War by depicting the power of political ambition and the ensuing repercussions of thoughtlessly falling to the will of constituency. The translation impressively re-creates the broad array of moral and emotional tones conveyed by Euripides, with a comprehensive introduction, notes on the text, and a glossary of mythical and geographical terms. | ||||||

A masterpiece of theatrical intensity grappling with conflicts more relevant today than ever before: religious freedom, political order, apathy and fanaticism.

a compelling look at the devastating consequence of `man's inhumanity to man'. A stern critique of Greek culture, Iphigeneia at Aulis condemns the Trojan War by depicting the power of political ambition and the ensuing repercussions of thoughtlessly falling to the will of constituency. The translation impressively re-creates the broad array of moral and emotional tones conveyed by Euripides, with a comprehensive introduction, notes on the text, and a glossary of mythical and geographical terms. | ||||||

Iphigenia at Aulis, so vastly different as to highlight the playwright's Protean invention, centres on the ultimate dysfunctional family, that of Agamemnon, as natural emotion is tested in the tragic crucible of the Greek expedition against Troy. | ||||||

Synopsis: | The Iphigenia Cycle actually consists of two plays, both written by the great Greek tragedian Euripides near the end of his life. The first is Iphigenia at Aulis, which tells how Agamemnon, leader of the Greek army, comes to sacrifice his eldest daughter Iphigenia to the goddess Artemis, in return for a promised victory over his enemies in Troy. Over the objections of his brother Menelaos, his wife Clytemnestra, and the young soldier Achilles, he manages to convince Iphigenia of the nobility of her sacrifice and she agrees to it, only to be rescued at the last minute by the goddess herself. The second play, Iphigenia in Tauris, picks up the story ten years later. Iphigenia has been taken by Artemis to the barbaric land of Tauris, where she serves as the priestess of her temple. The custom here is to kill any Greek who ventures on Taurian soil, and it is Iphigenia's duty to supervise these killings, which are sacrifices to the goddess. One day two Greek travelers show up, who Iphigenia discovers are in fact her younger brother Orestes and his friend Pylades. Orestes, who murdered Clytemnestra to avenge that lady's murder of Agamemnon, is being pursued by the Furies. To free him of this miserable torture, the god Apollo has commanded him to steal the statue of Artemis housed at this very temple. He and Iphigenia reunite and contrive to steal the statue and indeed Iphigenia herself from the temple at Tauris. At the end of the play, the goddess Athena affirms the victory of the Greeks over the Taurians, leaving us with the promise of Orestes's just return to rule over his people. | |||||

Synopsis: | With the three woman chorus speaking solely in Iambic Pentameter, this modern-dress adaptation becomes a chilling account of how the juggernaut of religion, nationalism and political need can create a state-sanctioned suicide martyr. Given the Iraq war and the fierce debate over religious fundamentalism in the Middle East and at home, it's hard to find a more relevant piece of theater than this modern adaptation of Euripides' 2,500-year-old tragedy. | |||||

Synopsis: | Medea was a sorceress princess who helped Jason steal the Golden Fleece from her father and having fled with him and borne his children was then abandoned for another princess who brought a kingdom with her. Medea sent a poisoned garment as a gift to her replacement, killed her own children and flew off in a chariot drawn by dragons. This is not a retelling of her story, though it draws on elements of it and is full of reminders of the tragedy. Knowledge the legend is not a prerequisite and perhaps may produce a more closed response than that of those who come without it. You take a longer route than usual to Studio 2 and, having removed shoes and socks in an anteroom, are ushered to a small space where a middle-aged servant is cutting up what looks like onions and offal. The last show I saw in the theatre upstairs was Thyestes, with its child-cooking, and a television programme about eating placentas perhaps coloured my interpretation of what this was, it might have meant no more than routine domesticity. Stopping her work, the woman takes each member of the audience, joining hands with them to lead them past a hanging curtain and into a dimly lit space where another woman, clad in black, guides them down a step or two and through a foot-deep tank of water to a specific place along a ledge that surrounds it. | |||||

I think it is the best time to bring a little girl in to the world.' On a simple stage - a dreamed-up version of the Australian backyard - five actors tease out the story of a father and his daughter. Blurring character and perspective, their fluid accounts morph seamlessly between observation and intention, postulation and provocation, cajolement and confession. By the story's end, a dream of modern life has become a searing tragedy of leadership and sacrifice. Love Me Tender is formally inventive, rich in beauty and emotional power. Inspired by Euripides' Iphigenia in Aulis | ||||||

Synopsis: | The piece is based on the play by Euripides and has been adapted and directed by Hyoung-Taek Limb. It interprets Euripides' Medea as two characters with different mentalities, torn between two minds as a mother and a lover. It will be performed in Korean with English subtitles (which are hardly necessary, because the narrative is easily understood by all audiences.) There are six actors and two singers, all Korean. This production creates a new style by combining not only Korean voices and martial arts, but also techniques of the Beijing Opera and Indian Odissi tradition with classic theater. The performance utilizes daily sounds and voice work derived from the Korean traditional one-person opera pansori and traditional folk song. | |||||

But, when her lover leaves her to marry the beautiful daughter of a Casino owner, Medea is driven to avenge his betrayal the only way a "woman" knows how. From Marianne McDonald, award-winning author of the critically acclaimed Trojan Women, comes this tale of passion and sacrifice. "Marianne McDonald's script ingeniously modernizes all this. Medea is a black transvestite from South Africa's Colchester (the original Medea was involved from Colchis) who becomes involved with white drug dealer James, a widower with two sons."

Synopsis: | I'll take its own synopsis fiom the programme. 'Your husband runs off with a younger woman and leaves you with nothing? How do you get back at him? Kill the kids.' Really? Kill the kids? The Greek classics live on because we love the idea that the basic human emotions and dilemmas are eternal, unchanged over the millennia. But this Medeia is not really recognisable as the psychological portrait of a modem woman. Neither the elegant gowns nor the effortlessly contemporary didogue are going to bring her remotely close to the kind of psychotic maternal child-killer you might read about with horror in the papers. | |||||

Helen Edmundson's free version of the play, with its brooding meditation on matricide and guilt, revenge and justice. proves almost liberated to escapism's point.

Synopsis: | The Phoenician Women is a tragedy by Euripides based on the same story as Aeschylus' play Seven Against Thebes. The title refers to the Greek chorus, which is composed of Phoenician women on their way to Delphi who are trapped in Thebes by the war. Unlike some of Euripides' other plays, the chorus does not play a significant role in the plot, but represents the innocent and neutral people that very often are found in the middle of a war situations. Patriotism is a significant theme in the story, as Polynices talks a great deal about his love for the city of Thebes but has brought an army to destroy it; Creon is also forced to make a choice between saving the city and saving the life of his son. Euripides wrote the play around 408, under the influence of a big defeat of his homeland, Athens, who faced then a military disaster. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Euripides | |||||
Synopsis: | Rhesus, the earliest undated extant tragedy of Euripides, is based on events of the Trojan War, as told by Homer in the Tenth Book of the Iliad, the only known tragedy to do this. As a play, Rhesus has captured the imagination of scholars since ancient times. It is so unusual and so unorthodox to ancient dramaturgy, that some consider it a spurious play of the great dramatic poet who, apparently composed it at a very young age. Rhesus relates events that took place in the Trojan camp overnight, that ultimately marked the defeat of the Greek navy and the death of Achilles. The time span during which the plot unfolds is actual and, along with other unique elements that this play employs, such as goddesses having dialog with mortals, an unusual Chorus, and brevity in terms of number of lines, makes it rather unusual for classical repertory and one of Euripi des's most rarely staged tragedies. Using the Richmond Lattimore English translation, this American Thymele Theatre production of Rhesus adheres to four basic elements about ancient theatrical production: It is presented in daylight time, in an amphitheatre setting, without intermission, and free of charge for all. | |||||

Rhesus, probably the work of another playwright, deals with a grisly event in the Trojan War. Like Iphigenia at Aulis, its `subject is war and the pity of war', but it is also an exciting, action-packed theatrical Iliad in miniature. | ||||||

Synopsis: | Directed by Seret Scott . "Sorrowful, spent, angry, enlightened: The Trojan Women makes you feel these things, often at once. In 90 minute, the Old Globe staging of Euripides' tragedy, directed by Seret Scott and adapted by Marianne McDonald, delivers a shattered world, the one women inhabit when soldiers leave. Without flinging the play heedlessly into the present, UCSD professor McDonald's words have an unadorned familiarity. Her text brings home the horrors of war transparently; we can see through the language to the rapes of Kosovo, the bombings in the Gulf or Vietnam, and as Euripides so boldly anatomized, the Greek slaughter of the men of Melos in 416 B.C."

The war is over. Beyond the prison walls, Troy and its people burn. Inside the prison, the city's captive women await their fate. But their grief at what has been before will soon be drowned out by the horror of what is to come, as the Greek lust for vengeance consumes everything man, woman and baby in its path. This caustic and radical new version of Euripides classic tragedy comes from one of the UK's most exciting young poets, Caroline Bird. It is an intense, gripping look at what happens when the world collapses. | ||||||

Synopsis: | In the wake of their devastating defeat, the women of Troy, all now widows, wait on the beach below the ravaged city to be claimed by their Greek conquerors as slaves and concubines. Though the war is over, exile and degradation lie ahead and the fates of these women, including Queen Hecuba, her daughter Cassandra, the doomed, mad prophetess, and her daughter-in-law Andromache, widow of the great Hector, are still in the balance. | |||||

Synopsis: | Adapted from Euripides and written in contemporary American verse, The Trojan Women dramatizes the aftermath of the Trojan War by focusing on Hecuba, widow of Troy's King Priam, her immediate family, and all the women who survived the war. As if losing the war, her husband, and son were not enough, Hecuba must also endure the madness of her daughter Cassandra and the murder of her little grandson, the last surviving male of Troy. By implication this great tragedy reveals the destruction and loss awaiting any person who survives any war. | |||||

Synopsis: | A city is burning. The last of its men murdered in a savage night. The women await their fate, trophies from a bloody battle that raged for ten years across their land. This is the aftermath of war in all its brutality and despair. Euripides' play is set in the days that follow the destruction of Troy by the Greek armies. The end of a bitter war waged by one man determined to punish the wife who shamed him and the people who kept her away. It is an epic drama of moral struggles of faith, doubt and reason. Through the voices of the women we hear a clear indictment of the futility of war and our human potential for cruelty. The gods are not immune to Euripides' acute eye. Their capricious whims highlight the struggles and vulnerabilities of the humans whose fates they control, reminding us that there are greater forces afoot, mysterious and incalculable. This new adaptation of Women of Troy by director Jeremy James offers a rare opportunity to see a full tragic chorus on stage. Twenty-two performers re-enact this powerful text with music, song, puppetry and performance, boldly bringing to life a timeless Troy with its mythological gods and tragic heroes. Zeus will send rain in floods with incessant hail and black tornadoes&infuriate the Aegean with waves and whirlpools; let floating corpses jostle down the Gulf; so that Greeks may learn in future to show humility before the gods. | |||||

No man's land; between the shattered walls of Troy and the tents of the victorious Greeks, Hecuba, Queen of Troy, waits to be distributed and sail away to a sorrowful destiny. While she waits she hears of her relative's destinies and witnesses the cruelty of her captors; Troy's men and children have been brutally slain, leaving its women to serve them like dogs. But buried deep within the misery and grief, a ray of hope in the human spirit shines and Euripides proves that no-one wins in war! Considered Euripides most tragic piece, Women of Troy is a dark piece of theatre with a strong anti-war message. | ||||||
