and around these events, I was again in the theater. "Phèdre by Jean Racine, in a translation by Ted Hughes. More importantly, Helen Mirren plays the main role and the boy from "Mamma Mia" is also engaged, with more clothes and a more demanding role.
The plot: Phèdre is married to Theseus, who has been missing for six months and his son Hippolytus - has applied to take care of the family - Phèdre stepson. Venus has now Phèdre into her head that she is madly in love with Hippolytus. Phèdre wants to kill himself, but is held by her maid of it. Instead, the news comes that Theseus is dead, and Phèdre makes ran at the Junior. But he is in love with another, and find the scene rather disgusting. Then, suddenly, Theseus is at the door and not tell on that Hippolytus Phaedra can tell the maid Theseus that his son has raped his wife. Theseus banished Hippolytus and asks Neptune to kill his son. Whose protestations of innocence fall on deaf ears. Since we are dealing with a Greek tragedy, Theseus recognizes his mistake too late, Hippolytus is dead, the maid jumped from the cliff and Phèdre swallows poison.
If once you have become resigned to the fact that the act preceding only in that the parties are unreasonable, the play is quite entertaining. The love Phèdre is extremely painful to experience low moments in which her fancy, and she realizes what she's up, are simultaneously funny and tragic. Theseus is a long-haired, shaggy-bearded Irishman played, perfect for the hot-tempered and very happy life character. The best I found, however, the performer of Aricia, the girlfriend of Hippolytus. Of course, they had an easier task because Phèdre is a rather unsympathetic person. The piece is worth seeing, and because so many people thought was extending its duration, a few weeks. is to work
