TIRANA, Jan. 29 – After its premiere in Durres and Korça, Sophocles’ Electra is travelling to Tirana this weekend with a stage at the National Theatre.
Directed by Laert Vasili, the famous ancient Greek tragedy stars Eralda Çaushi, Amos Muji Zaharia and Mimoza Marjanaku.
The tragedy is scheduled to stage on Jan. 30, 31 and Feb. 1, 6, 7 and 8 at the “Kujtim Spahivogli” experimental theatre at the National Theatre.
Set in the city of Argos a few years after the Trojan War, the tragedy is based on the character of Electra, and the vengeance that she and her brother Orestes take on their mother Clytemnestra and step father Aegisthus for the murder of their father, Agamemnon.
Electra also represented Albanian National Theatre in this year’s 11 edition of the international Butrint theatre festival.
