Notes: | Original Playwright - Euripides | |||||
Synopsis: | Present day geopolitics clash with ancient, mystical tragedy in this transposition of Euripides' play to the present-day green zone in Baghdad. In the original, the Theban leader Pentheus and the vengeance-seeking half-god Dionysus are cousins who each have some rightful claim on the city. Makes Pentheus the swaggering, tyrannical leader of US forces in Iraq.The argument is skewed irrevocably in the favour of Dionysusplayed as a Middle East-accented, dreadlocked hottie whose powers manifest in his ability to make the Bacchants whirl like dervishes to a groovy world music beat as flames shoot out of the urn containing his mother's ashes. | |||||
