The Eleventh Hour Theatre Co. Presents Aeschylus' AGAMEMNON
By: BWW News Desk
From November 13 to 28, The Eleventh Hour Theatre Company will perform a new translation of Aeschylus' "Agamemnon" by Eleventh Hour artistic director Alexander Harrington, directed by Harrington and featuring original music by Michael Sirotta. Greek tragedy combined song, speech, and chant. Scholars are able to hypothesize how a section of a play was performed (sung, spoken, or chanted) based on the poetic meter the playwright used for that section.
Harrington is striving to approximate Aeschylus' original poetic meters in his new translation. Composer Michael Sirotta will be setting the sung and chanted sections to music.
