Ă propos de ce livre
DumbWise reinvent the murderous Greek myth of power and prophecy as a lyrical modern epic with a live punk-rock score. A Queen masterminds the murder of her husband and takes the throne with her new lover. Her daughter, Electra, grows up in the grip of a cruel regime, swearing revenge. Her son Orestes, exiled as a boy and raised in the arms of the rebels, waits to embark on a holy mission to reclaim his country. Two decades later a twist of fate brings brother and sister together; united by hate but divided by faith. With the country on the brink of civil war, the most powerful family in the Kingdom are torn apart from the inside as their dark past once again becomes the present. The revolution will be televised, but are The Gods watching?

EXCLUSIVE: CLYTEMNESTRA â HER STORY IN HER OWN WORDS. PART 1.
The QUEEN sits in a chair. She is in a TV studio. A broadcast camera DCS. The HOST and other bodies talk quietly upstage. A constant feedback can be heard. The QUEEN stares into space. The QUEENâS ADVISER comes downstage and checks the QUEENâs make-up and appearance. The QUEEN doesnât flinch, doesnât break her focus. The feedback intensifies. The HOST comes downstage and takes her seat, saying something briefly to the QUEEN who stays still, unmoving. The HOST readies herself. We hear/see a producer upstage counting down from five. The feedback swells and cuts.
HOST: Hello
This evening we welcome Queen Clytemnestra
A woman who needs no introduction to Greece
Having served as First Lady in not one but two administrations
In the wake of a chilling unrest
And amidst very personal attacks on her character
Her notorious transition to the new government
And her infamous remarriage
She has agreed to talk exclusively to us
To tell her side of the story
Uncensored and unprompted
This is Queen Clytemnestra as you have never seen her before
Good evening your Majesty
And thank you for coming on the show
QUEEN: A pleasure
Thank you for having me
HOST: Why donât you take us back to the very start
Youâre serving your first administration
with your then husband, Agamemnon
QUEEN: Yes
HOST: Give us a sense
of what it felt like
to be serving the nation
in the highest office?
QUEEN: Starting off easy then?
The HOST laughs falsely.
It was a dream come true
For both of us
HOST: But it was an administration
Plagued by war wasnât it?
QUEEN: Thatâs right
The honeymoon didnât last long
And we all paid the price
For defending our way of life
Against the enemy
None more so than Agamemnon
Who spent years away in Troy
HOST: Yes
Agamemnonâs exploits
During the war
Are world famous
QUEEN: He was a very brave man
And a great, great soldier
HOST: Brave enough to take your daughter with him?
Pause. A stoney silence.
Iphigenia?
QUEEN: We agreed not to cover that topic
HOST: The disappearance of your daughter?
We did
I just thought, perhaps,
This might be an invaluable opportunity
To discuss Agamemnonâs actions â
The turning tides of the war?
Silence.
For you then
Being at home, alone
How was it for you?
QUEEN: It wasnât easy, certainly
Any wife will tell you
Of the sleepless nights
The uncertainty
So it was with me
But I wonât make a case
For my troubles
At a ...
