The Oresteia

Synopsis

A city at war. A newfound "peace." But at what cost?

The royal House of Atreus is cursed, and someone needs to set it right. As bloody deeds rise and fury threatens to overwhelm the earth, who will deliver justice?

This exciting new adaptation combines Aeschylus' three play epic into a single hour, with a cast of merely four actors. Presented as the Oak Park Festival Theatre Apprentice Show and performed in the Austin Gardens, The Oresteia explores grief, cycles of violence, and questions the price of peace.
