"He takes what he wants... and he pays for it!"
The first play of Aeschylus’ great The Oresteia Trilogy, Agamemnon tells of the return of the King of Argos, Agamemnon, from a 10-year bloody and brutal war with Troy. Waiting at home for her husband’s return, Queen Clytemnestra has been planning his murder. Her desire: to avenge their daughter, Iphigenia, who was violently sacrificed by Agamemnon to aid the Greeks’ victory over Troy. If Medea is the worst Mother, Clytemnestra is the worst wife, “but for wronged, silenced, and undervalued daughters, she is something of a hero”.
This play contains content of a potentially upsetting nature, including references to violence, suicide, and rape.
