  3. An Oresteia, or What We Have Seen by David Bullen


A world premiere from playwright David Bullen, adapted from ancient texts by Sophocles, Aeschylus, and Euripides.


'You cannot alter the truth of what we have seen.'


EastLine Theatre in association with the Babylon Citizens Council on the Arts will present the world premiere of David Bullen's An Oresteia, or What We Have Seen, this November. Commissioned in response to current events, An Oresteia tells the ancient story of the fall of the house of Atreus beginning with the murder of Agamemnon and detailing its repercussions through the generations.


This production is part of EastLine's Theatre for All free season.


This event is made possible through the support of the Babylon Citizens Council on the Arts, the Huntington Arts Council, and the First Presbyterian Church of Babylon.


The world premiere of An Oresteia, or What We Have Seen by David Bullen is directed by Nicole Savin & Danny Higgins, stage managed by Matt Rosenberg, and features costumes by Lynn Ciorciari.


The cast of An Oresteia, or What We Have Seen features Logan Clingan, Paul DeFilippo, Joe DiPietro, Julie Fergus, Kuan Hao Huang, Thea Kraus, Michelle Osojnak, and Michael Valdes.


EastLine's Theatre for All free season will continue in December with Kate Hamill's adaptation of Pride & Prejudice.


EastLine Theatre is a nonprofit theatre company that BroadwayWorld calls 'Long Island's best kept secret'. EastLine aims to create theatre in unlikely spaces while re-examining the canon, exploring modern plays, and bringing original works to the attention of the community.


This past summer, EastLine toured Long Island parks with an acclaimed production of Romeo & Juliet. In recent years, EastLine has produced Prospero (Live), an original musical based on The Tempest; the Long Island premiere of Paula Vogel's Indecent; a newly-commissioned adaptation of Antigone; a sold-out run of Peter Shaffer's Amadeus in a tiny blackbox space; and a production of Treasure Island that BroadwayWorld said was 'bursting at the seams with imagination'.


EastLine Theatre is a proud member of the Huntington Arts Council and the Alliance of Resident Theatres / New York.
