October 20, 2013 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm –
Colorado State University presents Charles Mee’s jaw-dropping twist on classic characters in Orestes 2.0, an edgy and dark re-visioning of the original works of Greek playwright Euripides. This fever-dream of a play weaves snippets from Vogue Magazine, Soap Opera Digest, interviews with porn star Mai Lin, and works by William Burroughs and Apollinaire, with plays of Euripides as it tells the story of Orestes and Electra, who murdered their mother to avenge the murder of their father at her hands.
