National Theatre Live: Phèdre (2009)
06/25/2009 (GB) • 2h 5m
The result is carnage.
Overview
A new English adaptation of the classic French tragedy Phèdre by Jean Racine (1639-1699). It retells the ancient Greek tale of the wife of the Atenian King Theseus, who conceived a forbidden love for his son (by an earlier wife) Hyppolytus. All ends badly for all.
