Kiln Theatre in partnership with the Abbey Theatre presents
Girl on an Altar (London)
19 May - 25 June 2022
Written by Marina Carr
Directed by Annabelle Comyn
Clytemnestra’s world is torn apart when her husband, Agamemnon, sacrifices their daughter for the sake of war. Ten years on from this unthinkable tragedy, the couple are reunited. What follows is a dangerous battle of love, grief and power.
Marina Carr’s (Blood Wedding, By the Bog of Cats) new re-telling of the infamous Greek myth brings Clytemnestra’s story to the forefront and asks is it possible to forgive the unforgiveable?
