National Theatre of Greece – Thomas Moschopoulos
Euripides, Alcestis
Who is Alcestis? A symbol of self-denial and wifely devotion; the Euripidean heroine who, having consented to die in her husband’s place, returns veiled from the grave at the end. Ambiguous, satirical and tragicomic, the oldest surviving play by the ‘philosopher of the stage’ continues to fuel a range of alternative interpretations.
Thomas Moschopoulos’ in his directorial debut at Epidaurus with Maria Skoula in the title role.
