What if Iphigenia, whom her father Agamemnon sacrificed before his expedition to Troy, did not die, but was spirited away by Artemis to one of her temples? And what if her distraught brother Orestes, still running from the Furies, happens to find himself at the very temple that Iphigenia now presides over?

This Euripidean tragicomedy, with a plot twist and happy ending, is the playwright’s second take on the story of Iphigenia. In 2018 we performed Euripides' tragedy Iphigenia in Aulis, a play that ends with her sacrifice. This summer, come see Iphigenia Among the Taurians, Euripides’ play about healing and homecoming. Of special note: Cappella Clausura singers will chant the Chorus parts with original music by Amelia LeClair.
