UFV Theatre presents Bakkhai
Bakkhai, by Euripides
March 9 – 19, 2017
Collaborative Direction and Design by Bruce Kirkley, Raina von Waldenburg, and Parjad Sharifi
In The Bakkhai, the Greek god Dionysus appears in human form to entreat Pentheus, the unyielding King of Thebes, to stop oppressing his female followers. When Pentheus refuses his request, Dionysus possesses his mind and compels him to seek out the Bakkhai’s sacred ceremonies in the hills above Thebes. Tragedy ensues when Pentheus is caught and Dionysus reveals himself in triumph. This contemporary interpretation of Euripides’ classic play will integrate Viewpoints, physical theatre, and digital projection.
Show times are Thursday, Friday, Saturday – 7:30 pm; Sunday matinee @ 2:00 pm
