Iphigenia
by Euripides
adapted and directed by Mike Haddad
Content note: TBD
About the Show: A combined and adapted script from Iphegenia at Aulis and Iphegenia at Tauris.
Set prior to the commencement of the Trojan War, Iphigenia at Aulis revolves around the strong resistance by Clytemnestra to the decision of her husband, Agamemnon, the leader of the Greek coalition before and during the Trojan War, to ritually sacrifice and kill his daughter, Iphigenia, to appease the goddess Artemis. This would allow his troops to set sail to preserve their honor in order to battle and ultimately sack Troy. At the last moment the goddess Artemis intervenes and replaces Iphigenia on the altar with a deer, saving the girl and sweeping her off to the land of the Taurians.
In Iphegenia at Tauris, Iphegenia is made a priestess at the temple of Artemis in Taurica. She hates her forced religious servitude and is desperate to contact her family in Greece. She wants to inform them that, thanks to the miraculous swap performed by Artemis, she is still alive and wants to return to her homeland, leaving the role of high priestess to someone else.
