Ancient tragedies and modern Greece –that of the Colonels’ regime - combine in this play to conjure a mythical country, haunted by a mysterious curse. Dimitriadis’ fragmented text has been fascinating directors for years. This monumental version by Michael Marmarinos revisits the playwright’s vision of a dying civilization.
