1953

Autumn's latest English-language show is this production of Craig Raine's play, which transposes Racine's 'Andromaque' to a fictional post-WW2 Europe. The Allies have lost the war and Hitler has sent a man to Italy to recover the son of the late King of England, much to the chagrin of King Mussolini, who is in love with the sometime Queen. The show is performed in English and French, with subtitles as an integral part of the show.
