From bloodstained palace to secure services in hospital, Zinnie Harris transforms Greek myth into three gripping tales where vengeance and love, viscerally collide. See one play or the whole epic trilogy in a day.

When your father has sacrificed your sister and your mother has killed your father, what remains to be done? Amongst the story of an unravelling marriage and an exploration of motherhood and identity, siblings Electra and Orestes test how far loves bough can bend before it breaks.
