Aeschylus’ Agamemnon


The award-winning tragédienne returns to read us Aeschylus’ Agamemnon and transport us into the world of usurpation and revenge described in the first part of the Oresteia trilogy (458 BC), as Agamemnon, the conqueror of Troy, returns to Argos. A student of Dimitris Rontiris at the Greek National Theatre Drama School, Aspasia Papathanasiou joined her mentor on tours with the Piraeus Theatre and became an ambassador for ancient Greek theatre the world over. She was also instrumental in founding the Desmi Cultural Organisation (1975) and the Centre for Ancient Greek Drama Research and Practical Applications (1991).
