Theatre. Ifigeneia

From 15 to 22 November 2023 at the KVS.

Maaike Neuville and Tessa Hall set to work with the story of Iphigenia, one of the most tragic figures in Greek mythology. She is sacrificed by her father to give the Greek army wind in the sails as they set out to retrieve the abducted Helena in Troy, the start of a ten-year war. That's how the story goes. But what if Iphigenia had been able to write her own story?

In this adaptation of the classical tragedy, Maaike Neuville lets Iphigenia look back on her own story and on the endless cycle of vengeance in her family through a monologue. The question arises: how could things be different?
