RAGE – ORESTEIA REVISITED

RAGE – ORESTEIA REVISITED written by Aeschylus is a collage performance event exploring rage and cycles of revenge. Director Leslie Baker will lead an ensemble of Concordia students; 10 performers and a team of designers, in the creation of this performance inspired by the Oresteia. The Six Viewpoints and a physical approach to acting will inform the creation process. The final piece will employ physicality, sound, text and image to articulate the content of this collaged creation. Set in a minimalist landscape, a highly viscerally expressive chorus will lead us through an event that explores ancient and contemporary experiences of rage and the cyclical nature of revenge.
