Theatre: Racine’s “Phèdre” – Nopigia 3rd August and Agios Antonios 4th August
Racine’s classic tragedy, “Phédre”, a masterpiece of French 17th century literature, stems from Plutarch and Virgil and its subject is inspired by Euripides’s “Hippolytus” and Seneca’s “Phaedra”. The unlawful love of Phaedra for Hippolytus, the son of her husband Theseus, is revived through the new translation of poet and translator Stratis Paschalis. The translation captures the morphology of the original play through a modern language.
