greekfestival_homeiph_800x315_quoteA MODERN MAKEOVER. Anne Washburn and Rachel Chavkin, two of contemporary theatre’s most winningly iconoclastic talents, bring the ancient world out of the shadows and illuminate it for a contemporary audience. A spectacularly made over Greek Chorus! – The New York Times

From EURIPIDES
Transadapted by ANNE WASHBURN
Original Music by THE BENGSONS
Choreography by SONYA TAYEH
Directed by RACHEL CHAVKIN

As part of CSC’s inaugural Greek Festival, playwright Anne Washburn (Mr. Burns, a post-electric play) and director Rachel Chavkin (Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812) team up in this dynamic imagining of Euripides’ rarely-seen final play. Featuring new music by Indie Rock duo The Bengsons and choreography by Sonya Tayeh (“So You Think You Can Dance”), this electric rendering of an ancient story returns us to a world where a father is challenged to sacrifice his daughter to appease the gods.
