Iphigenia in Aulis

This show is an interpretation of an episode of the Iliad in which Iphigenia, the daughter of Agamemnon, is the protagonist, chosen as a virgin to be sacrificed to the gods in order to propitiate the victory of the Greeks in the war against Troy. We will be able to observe the portrait of Agamemnon, the great Greek strategist, a man consumed by his own dream, and Achilles, a “hero lacking momentum” blinded by an earthly love.
