Production notes:
North American premiere of Robert Icke's 2015 Oresteia, ID 13794 (London, UK). Lia Williams was meant to reprise her role as Clytemnestra but had to be replaced before the start of the production due to injury. Performances alternated in repertory with Icke's Hamlet (10 June to 13 Aug): "allowing audiences to experience the throughlines and connections in these classic dramas—depicting two epic family sagas written over 2,000 years apart—performed by the same cast."
