Sommario/riassunto

Orestes' parents are at war. A family drama spanning several decades, a huge, moving, bloody saga, Aeschylus' greatest and final play asks whether justice can ever be done - and continues to resonate more than two millennia after it was written.<br>  This new adaptation of <i>Oresteia</i> was first performed at the Almeida in Summer 2015, marking the first major London production of Oresteia in over a decade.
