Jean Racine's 1677 PHAEDRA grows out of a landscape inspired from Greek mythology and infused with possibilities of the spectacular to become what critics have deemed to be a radically modern tragedy.
Voltaire called it "the masterpiece of the human mind." An anatomy of anxiety and desire, it is a masterpiece of the human mind that shows the workings of the mind on the edges of madness, the ruin of reason by uncontrollable and fragmenting passion.Directed by Spencer Golub, PHAEDRA opens tonight and runs thru March 10 at the Stuart Theatre in Providence, Rhode Island.For tickets and more information, click here!
