ABOUT THE PLAY:
A king with more hubris than know-how. A working class fed up with the status quo. A woman destined to take back the kingdom. Pinera's ELECTRA GARRIGÓ served as a harsh criticism of Cuba's pre-revolutionary politics, through the lens of a re-imagined Greek tragedy. Both philosophy and farce, ELECTRA GARRIGÓ spins a complex argument begging the question: who should have the power to lead?
