  3. Agamemnon


Ten years ago, Agamemnon, King of Mycenae and leader of the Greek army sacrificed his own daughter to appease the gods and to help the war effort. Now, victorious after the ten long and bloody years of the Trojan War, he returns home to his kingdom and to his wife, Clytemnestra. His glorious homecoming is the spark that ignites a cycle of vengeance that threatens to consume and destroy his entire family.

Agamemnon is the first play of Aeschylus’ trilogy The Oresteia, which was first performed and won Aeschylus the first prize at the at the Fesitval of Dionysus in 458 BCE. Anne Carson, Canadian poet, essayist, translator, was a 1998 Guggenheim Fellow and in 2000 she was awarded a MacArthur Fellowship.
