Similarly to my previous work, I created a fresh vision of this masterpiece into a stage production with the theme of vengeance so that the audience will have a profound interest and be able to affiliate with the play.
The strong desire for revenge reveals the character's true inner self which is motivated by betrayal. People in society today have felt infidelity like Clytaemnestra which is certainly why the audience can understand and relate to the play...
