"HOME SIEGE HOME"

WHAT:

Devised by The Ghost Road Company, one of California's most ambitious experimental, multimedia theater ensembles, the three plays - Clytemnestra, Elektra and Orestes - use original music and songs, innovative text and arresting visual imagery to explore the intimate lives of one ancient and powerful family through our contemporary eyes.
