Agamemnon

Vision West Nottinghamshire College 2nd year BTEC Acting students perform Stephen Berkoff’s adaptation of Aeschylus’ original Greek play, Agamemnon.

The play tells the story of the Greek King Agamemnon after he and his brother have returned home victorious from the Trojan War. However, Agamemnon’s family are doomed to destroy one another due to their ancestor incurring the wrath of the Gods.

The Curse of the House of Atreus comes back to haunt Agamemnon in this play and subsequent plays in the original series, named The Oresteia.

Expect murder, betrayal and war performed in the accentuated and expressionistic style of Berkoff’s total theatre.
