SUMMARY:Phaedra: a new play by Simon Stone after Euripides\, Seneca and Racine
DESCRIPTION:1st February – 8th April\n \nPhaedra\n \n\nIn a house of glass\, one must not throw stones.\n\n \n\nAfter years of fierce focus on her political career\, Phaedra turns her attention to her personal life.\n\n \n\nThe reappearance of her step-son shakes the foundations of her house and the beliefs that have underpinned her power.\n\n \n\nAs buried lust and loneliness surge to the surface\, Phaedra’s actions threaten to destroy everything she has built.\n\n \n\nWriter-Director Simon Stone (Yerma\, Young Vic) reimagines Seneca’s famous tragedy in this striking new play. Janet McTeer (Ozark) takes the title role\, with Assaad Bouab (Call My Agent) making his UK stage debut.\n\n \nFURTHER INFORMATION

SUMMARY:Theatre and Politics in Classical Athens
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Liverpool Classical Association Programme 2022-23 collection\n\n \n\nThe lecture will look at the complementary relationship between tragedy and comedy in their engagement with contemporary Athenian politics.\n\n \n\nThu\, 23 February 2023\, 19:00 – 20:00 GMT\n\n \n\nLiverpool College Queens Drive Liverpool L18 8BG\n\n \n\n \n\nThe world of the Athenian tragic stage and the world of its audience present a striking contrast. The plays were performed at festivals sponsored and managed by the democracy. Yet the plays themselves (probably almost 1800 plays performed over the lifetime of the democracy) were almost invariably set in a remote world ruled by kings\, the world familiar from Homeric epic. At the same time\, the political experience and values of democratic Athens impact on the content of the plays in different\, sometimes disconcerting\, ways. The lecture will look at the complex and shifting relationship between tragedy and Athenian democracy and modern attempts to explain that relationship. Comedy engages more directly with contemporary politics; but even here the relationship between the world inside the theatre and the world outside proves slippery. The lecture will also look at the complementary relationship between tragedy and comedy in their engagement with contemporary Athenian political life.\n\n \n\nProfessor Chris Carey is Emeritus Professor of Greek at University College London. His research interests include Greek lyric poetry\, tragedy and comedy\, oratory\, rhetoric and law. He has published widely on Greek literature. He is a fellow of the British Academy. Chris is originally from Liverpool\n\n \n\nThe event will be held at Liverpool College\, Queen’s Drive\, Liverpool L18 8BG\n\n \n\nAccess to the venue\, Mossley Vale Hall\, Liverpool College\, is via the Prep School entrance on Queens Drive.
