You know the story behind the Trojan War: the handsome young prince Paris is promised the most beautiful woman in the world by the goddess Aphrodite.  She's already married, but why should that matter?

For nearly a decade.  But this is not your father's Iliad-it's something more timeless and compelling, in Lisa Peterson and Denis O'Hare's An Iliad, adapted from the translation by Robert Fagles, beginning a 4-week run in the Studio at Stage West on Thursday, August 11.

Premiere hatte das Stück von Botho Strauß 1978. Legendär das Ganze - Schaubühne Berlin, Edith Clever als Lotte, Regie Peter Stein. Wie keine zweite Figur ist Strauß' Lotte zum Sinnbild der alten BRD geworden. Westdeutschland war das damals, dazu noch das halbe Berlin. Und alle, die drin leben, mehr oder weniger arrangiert, wohlsituiert, seltsam heimatlos. Dazwischen irrlichtert Lotte, „the holy fool', wie der Sydney Morning Herald schreibt, der heilige Narr, in dem sich alles spiegelt. „Breathless', für einen Augenblick atemlos still, ist der Saal nach der Premiere in Sydney gewesen. Das macht neugierig auf die Verwandlung, die mit dem Stück in der Bearbeitung des englischen Dramatikers Martin Crimp geschehen ist. Es ist, als ob man etwas scheinbar Vertrautes durch die umgekehrte Seite des Fernglases betrachtet. Alles rückt ins Jetzt, in dem vieles ähnlich und doch eigentlich alles anders ist. „Bekannte Gesichter, gemischte Gefühle.' Cate Blanchett war 2008 mit ihrer Inszenierung von Blackbird bei den Ruhrfestspielen. Damals wurde die Idee zu diesem faszinierenden Projekt geboren.
