National Theatre of Greece - Lydia Koniordou
The Persians
by Aeschylus
“The play relates an important moment in history not as a victory for the Greeks, but—in the tragic context in which Aeschylus places it—as a defeat for the Persians. […] The production retains the temporal and spatial distance that separates us from the historic events it relates, while employing contemporary codes of expression that reveal the similarities with today’s world.”
Lydia Koniordou
