Seven characters undergo undefended days, periodically erupting into group dances of ecstasy, violence, and dismemberment. Caryl Churchill and David Lan's classic play explores themes of possession, violence, and gender fluidity using Euripides' The Bacchae as a jump-off text. The cast of twelve play multiple roles in what promises to be an evening of exciting and enigmatic theatre.
