Bakkhai

Anne Carson’s Bakkhai is a bold, modern reworking of Euripides’ classic tragedy, exploring the intoxicating power of belief and the dangers of blindly following tradition. With Carson’s razor-sharp language, this adaptation strips the ancient myth to its rawest form, exposing the clash between order and ecstasy, reason and reverence. 
 
This electrifying production is further heightened by an original score from producer Vice Beats, blending contemporary hip hop and soul with the primal energy of the play, making Bakkhai more urgent and immersive than ever.
