A striking reimagining of Euripides’ classic text, Iphigeni confronts the timeless question: what do we owe our country – and what do we owe our children? Playing a strictly limited run at the Arcola Theatre, book your official tickets to Iphigeni today!

What is Iphigenia about?

The winds have stopped. The Greek fleet is stranded. King Agamemnon is told by the gods that there is only one way for his army to reach Troy: he must sacrifice his daughter, Iphigenia.

Blending the brutal beauty of ancient tragedy with voices of today, this bold new production features contemporary testimonies from mothers who have lost children to war. Their raw, intimate and fiercely honest words reframe the myth for a modern world. A story of sacrifice, motherhood and the human cost of war – then and now.
