About the Show

Two of the most innovative female artists of our time join forces in a powerful examination of vengeful brutality. Seneca’s tragedy, Thyestes depicts feuding brothers doomed by arrogance and an unbridled desire for revenge that echoes through the centuries. The work of this eloquent philosopher-poet is revived by playwright Caryl Churchill’s gripping verse and director JoAnne Akalaitis’ bold style.
