ELEKTRA receives New York premiere at Theatre for a New Audience.
Elektra, haunted by her father's assassination, is consumed by grief; a need for survival; and a thirst for vengeance. When her long lost brother Orestes at last returns, she urges him to a savage and terrifying conclusion but at what cost?
Daniel Fish directs the first major New York revival in three decades of Sophokles' 2500-year-old tragedy, in a translation of startling immediacy by MacArthur-winning poet Anne Carson. With choral songs composed by Ted Hearne, this is an Elektra as visceral as it is timeless.
TAYLOR MAC performs A 24-Decade History of Popular Music (abridged) at Royal Festival Hall in London
UK orchestral premiere of Taylor Mac’s award-winning – and rapturously received – show, in an abridged version of the 24-hour-long performance art concert, with orchestrations by Ted Hearne.
Spanning 240 years, this genre-defying work tells a subjective story of America through popular song – blending ballads, anthems, disco and more into a bold and joyous theatrical event.
Part orchestral concert, part performance art, Mac’s creation is as provocative as it is celebratory. With extraordinary costumes, irreverent humour and moments of unexpected poignancy, the show invites audiences to reconsider whose stories are told, and how we listen to them.
