weekend at the agamemnons (2024)

Family problems come home to roost for a retiring professor and world-famous translator of Greek classics, when his life’s achievements are celebrated over a weekend with his two adult daughters, his estranged wife, and his live-in lover.

DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT

Weekend at the Agamemnons was filmed over Labor Day Weekend 2023 at The Tank theater in New York City.  It is a modern retelling of The Oresteia by Aeschylus. Hopefully the themes will resonate with a modern audience.
