Aeschylus’ Agamemnon at The Mount School

The Mount School is putting on a production of Aeschylus’ Agamemnon in March. This play is being performed and produced by girls from Year 9, 10 and 11. The story is set in Mycenae, as the queen Clytaemnestra waits for her husband Agamemnon to return from the Trojan War, ten years after he sacrificed their daughter Iphigenia in order to set sail for war, and is a tale of corruption, revenge and the lust for power.

There will be a performance on Monday 4^th March at 2.00 p.m. to the Senior School and other invited schools, and then two performances to parents and other visitors on Thursday 7^th March at 7.00 p.m. and Saturday 9^th March at 7.00 p.m. You are welcome to attend any performance.

Tickets cost £5 (£3 concessions) and are available from the front office on 020 8959 3403. Alternatively, you can contact admin@mountschool.com for more details. There will be one free teacher ticket for every 10 pupil tickets.

The school is in Mill Hill, in North London, and is accessible by tube. If you have any queries, please contact the front office on the e -mail address above, or me at rwiley@mountschool.com.
