Details

In a dramatic confrontation, Klytemnestra and Elektra, mother and daughter, perpetrator and victim, face one another in an attempt to come to terms with their violent past. Much like the countless survivors of gross human rights violations in South Africa, Elektra has come to hear the testimony of the person who she has witnessed brutally murdering her father when she was a child. South African director Yael Farber explores the extraordinary events and legacy of Apartheid through reworking the Greek classic of the Oresteia. Intimate and epic, Molora is another unmissable show from the company whose production of Amajuba received standing ovations across the world.
