Ask me about it in a few months
Neighbour and I are shootin' it this morning, talking about our various office-communication writing projects when this comes up again. We collectively wonder whether or not doing the whole Oresteia (because no-one needs to hear about Oedipus again) with language like that would get people to watch it. I doubt it, personally. I figure that audiences today can't connect with characters that have real problems. Now, if Agamemnon had forgotten Iphigenia at her softball practice and came home without her...people would be really worried. This doesn't mean I won't end up writing it. Notes for if this happens: it has to be performed in the style of a grade 10 drama class project: complete with bedsheet togas and honest-to-goodness-badness in acting.
