Electra/Persona
Featuring Cate Blanchett (The Seagull), Nina Hoss (The Cherry Orchard), and Ella Lily Hyland (Black Doves), Benedict Andrews’ (A Streetcar Named Desire) thrilling new play fuses ancient myth and modern psychology in a powerful exploration of identity, and the fragile line between who we are and who we play.
Electra. A daughter consumed by grief and rage, clinging to the idea of justice as her world comes apart.
Persona. During a performance of Electra, an actress suddenly falls silent. What follows is a rupture: two women drawn into an intense, unsettling encounter where speech breaks down and the boundaries between self and role give way.
