IPHIGENIA IN AULIS
** ADDED PERFORMANCES!! JUNE 14 & 15 at 8pm **
by Ellen McLaughlin
directed by Lathrop Walker
Performed by the WET Ensemble
Washington Ensemble Theatre presents a vibrant and visceral telling of the journey from betrayal to surrender in a time of stagnant war.
Arriving in a windless place filled with idle soldiers, Iphigenia searches for signs of the marriage she has been promised. Yet her purpose here is quite different than anything she had imagined. A secret is kept in Aulis, and as the men grow restless waiting for war, Iphigenia makes her ascension to the altar and to the revelation of her epic destiny.
Using Ellen McLaughlinâs brilliant textual reduction of the classic Greek myth, Iphigenia in Aulis is a fiercely physical exploration of innocence, extreme choices and ultimate transcendence.
