…and the response so far has been fantastic.
Here’s what some of you have said about the previews of our powerful new production of The Oresteia, directed by Blanche McIntyre, with a 50 strong community chorus at it’s heart and cast including Lyndsey Marshall and Simon Trinder playing multiple roles across genders:

@mbetteridge @HOME_mcr It was brilliant. The aesthetics and the choirs were amazing.

Kill & counter-kill: the Furies in #Oresteia at @HOME_mcr. A cathartic delight! http://gu.com/p/494dn
@jennkay27
On our way home from @HOME_mcr #TheOresteia enjoyed the naturalistic performances & unearthly ancient ones. Simple yet inventive.

TheOresteia @HOME_mcr was awesome tonight! LOVED the black sand. Can’t believe you managed to cram a trilogy of plays into 105 minutes!
@RobinHadley1
@HOME_mcr @StagecoachGM Interesting and dramatic production. #oresteia
@alice_YXL
Saw #TheOresteia at @HOME_mcr .’Orestes was pursued by furies’ is so dark and powerful. It made my flesh creep.
@hampo51
@HOME_mcr thoroughly enjoyed #TheOresteia tonight! A lovely blend of humour and drama!
@katejessturner2
Brilliant production of the #Oresteia tonight @HOME_mcr. Found the dancers portrayal of the Furies to be suitably terrifying!
@will_tosh
