Iphigeneia At Aulis
Translated and performed by The Victoria Ancient Theatre Society
Embark on a journey through Ancient Greece with The Victoria Ancient Theatre Society’s 10-year anniversary celebration, featuring Iphigeneia at Aulis.
This Greek tragedy follows the story of King Agamemnon as he is faced with the devastating decision to either sacrifice his own daughter, Iphigeneia, for the greater good of his nation, or risk the loss of the Trojan War.
Iphigeneia at Aulis is a gut-wrenching tale of morality, power, and the sacrifices demanded by love and war.
