What about it?

Elektra was a great show.
Wish I could have watched more performances.
The singing, the music, the acting, the lighting and the setting gelled in several places to create very moving moments.

The denouement where Elektra is being torn in two by the combination of utter joy and utter horror is truly terrifying.

Made even more terrific by the acting, which made Elektra quite intelligent.
Which makes the "madness" deeper.

The way all you intelligent people are driven apoplectic by the incredible stupidity and tortured logic of election campaigns.

I, personally, would like to be able to vote all of them off the planet.

Come to think of it, she's being pulled in many directions.
there's the Joy/horror strain and the Mad/intelligent strain.
Makes me think of Hamlet in many ways.

Especially when she gets her chance to kill her nemesis and balks.

After the show, at the Q and A session, Mr Jenkins explained that the appeal of these Greek dramas is that they are about family.

Traditional family values.

Like Hamlet's family, like the family in Godfather or the Sopranos or the
Bushes or some family I never had.

Or the Belfrys, with all the bats at home.

Heckelphones were also discussed.

They are German Bassoons.

If anybody ever asks.
