Description

Explore a unique collection of theatrical works that bring ancient stories into the modern era. Reclaiming Greek Drama for Diverse Audiences presents a series of adaptations and interviews featuring the voices of Native-American, African-American, Asian-American, Latinx, and LGBTQ theatre artists. This anthology examines how classical texts can address urgent social justice issues through contemporary performance. The collection includes seven adaptations of iconic plays by Sophocles, Euripides, and Aristophanes, including Antigone, Trojan Women, Hippolytus, Bacchae, Alcestis, and Frogs. It also features a work inspired by the myth of the Fates. These pieces, performed in small US theatres between 1989 and 2017, offer a look at how classical drama can speak to topics like marriage equality, gender justice, women's empowerment, and the trafficking of Native-American women. This book is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in theatre history, criticism, and the evolution of performing arts.
