This show has now finished
Aeschylus's greatest revenge saga is brought to the Fringe in a new adaptation by Alex MacKeith. Las Vegas's greatest casinos are embroiled in war, and Agamemnon is about to end the feud with a devastating blow: he will detonate the walls of Troy. When the dust settles and the king comes home, his triumphal return feels wrong. Clytemnestra is obsessed with a videotape, Elektra lives in virtual reality, and Orestes hasn't been seen in years. Under the lights of the Strip a bloodline will collapse, avengers will rise and the House of Atreus will fall to its knees.
