Description
Dying Lavinia, an adaptation from Nobel and Pulitzer Prize winner Eugene O’Neill’s Mourning Becomes Electra. Premiered on Broadway with much success in 1931, the original story is an update of the Greek myth of Orestes to the family of a Northern general in the American Civil War.
Adapted by the award-winning playwright Wong Wing-sze, this Academy production will be an abridged version of the original play which features themes of fate, revenge, hubris, adultery and honor. In the story, Lavinia, daughter of a wealthy general, hopes to stand herself as a defender of her father and family’s honor. While she tries to escape from a tragic fate, she suffers in dark solitude for the rest of her life.
