Chrysothemis

By Meg Braem

Digital on demand performance will be viewable from December 12, 2020 - January 1, 2021

Chrysothemis, the lost daughter of the House of Atreus, is starving for love, affection and peace. She seeks nourishment for her damaged and divided family through cooking - but will the very essence of healing through food be enough to transform and nurture the most dysfunctional family in history?

Visit the new Dramaturgy: Dig Deeper website for more about the making of Chrysothemis!
