Drama
Page Navigation
The Oresteia opens with Agamemnon sacrificing his daughter to the gods; an act which sets in motion a bloody cycle of revenge and counter-revenge. In This Restless House, Zinnie Harris reimagines Aeschylus‘s ancient drama, using a contemporary sensibility to interpret its events, while placing women at its very heart.
RCS BA Acting students perform the first part of Harris’s trilogy, Agamemnon’s Return.
Runtime: 2 Hours 30 Minutes (incl. interval)
This performance contains coercive behaviour, violence, partial nudity, blood, and themes of death and murder.
