Is he a militarist who did not hesitate to deceive his wife and sacrifice his daughter Iphigenia in order to remain in power? Or is he a leader who put his homeland above everything?<\/div>\n<div>Who is Queen Clytemnestra, left behind in a patriarchal society trying to keep the Kingdom of Mycenae alive while being confronted by the plebs? Is she a resentful woman who murders her husband the King for her own satisfaction? Or is she an oppressed and deceived woman who goes to Avlida to attend her daughter\u2019s wedding, but returns to Mycenae with the girl\u2019s sacrificed body? Is she justified to retaliate?<\/div>\n<div>Who is Aegisthus? Is he a coward lover hiding behind Clytemnestra\u2019s skirts? Or is it a man who has been long concealing his hatred and avenges Agamemnon when he finds the chance?<\/div>\n<div>Finally, what role does the Chorus play in this work? Is it the people who demand, who oppose Queen Clytemnestra and threaten to reveal everything to Agamemnon? Or is it a rebellious mass that revolts against unjust authority? And which is the human condition after all; which is the fate of the common people under the domination of any ruler, whether just or unjust?<\/div>\n<div>We hope to assist in exploring the above questions with the utmost respect that befits the glorious ancient Greek playwright and the theatre that will host our performance.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Vasilis Pomonis (Agamemnon)<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Artistic &amp; Production Credits<\/div>\n<div>Translation: I.N.
