The Bacchae

The Bacchae forms part of 2012's unique trilogy of plays, Festival of Chaos, two month celebration which explores the contemporary relevance of the god Dionysus.

A startling new version of Euripides’ Greek tragedy The Bacchae opens the trilogy and explores a society teetering on the brink of revolution.

Staged in an atmospheric industrial setting and featuring a spectacular original score, audiences are plunged into an unforgiving story of a modern city built on money and corporate greed, and exposed to a frenzied and theatrical world where Dionysus himself returns to take revenge on those that have forgotten him.
