Orestes at Dream Theatre

Chicago Reader - Highly Recommended

"...Determined to enter Hades and liberate her dead brother, Orestes, matricidal Greek princess Electra needs the help of two women who despise her: Cassandra (raped and murdered by Electra's father, Agamemnon) and Persephone (who has truly mythic mother issues). Things go from horrid to monstrous until--in an imaginative, awe-inspiring scene that would make Aeschylus jealous--Electra meets an infinitely piteous, infinitely terrible Pandora at the "dead center" of the underworld. As director, Menekseoglu creates arresting images from ten wooden poles planted on an otherwise empty stage."

"...I wish I had seen the first two parts of the Agon Trilogy because then I may have had a more complete experience. Perhaps if I had seen the trilogy from the beginning my reactions would have been different and any confusions would be been alleviated, especially since this was my first introduction to this style, However, if you are a newcomer like me, don’t be afraid to take this trip down to the underworld with Dream Theatre. You will most likely enjoy what you see."
