Racine's 1677 Phaedra, is a masterpiece of the human mind on the edges of madness and the ruin of reason by uncontrollable and fragmenting passion. In Phaedra's world, the sleepless place that is the stage becomes a space for the exploration of prohibition, guilt, repression, surveillance, and the unending game of power.
Sunday @ 2pm

Jean Racine's 1677 Phaedra grows out of a landscape inspired from Greek mythology and infused with possibilities of the spectacular to become what critics have deemed to be a radically modern tragedy. An anatomy of anxiety and desire, it is a masterpiece of the human mind that shows the workings of the mind on the edges of madness, the ruin of reason by uncontrollable and fragmenting passion.
