Blood of My Father
Wellington Theatre Collective (UK)
The neighbour heard the screams from next door. The body was found
floating in Chiswick River. At 16 and 20 years old, Orestes and Electra
never thought they would be interrogated as suspects in their father's
murder. Blood of my Father is a dark, twisted, spiralling sequence of
police interrogations. Who is lying under oath? Will the pressure push
them to breaking point? This is Electra, reimagined for 2024, written
and performed by young actors from the Wellington Theatre Collective.
