Gavin Kostick has written another play. It's called
Olive Skin, Blood Mouth and is based on Ovid's
Metamorphoses. It's on in the Project next week and is being performed by students from the Gaiety School of Acting. So expect a large cast and incredibly intricate layers of subplots.
More details.
I hope this avoids the pitfalls that made The Bacchae of Baghdad such a mess.

ReplyDeleteI think it managed that, preserving a generally more timeless aspect and not losing itself in heavy-handed DO YOU SEE point scoring.
