Backstage Tour - Penthesilea
An exclusive event for our members. Join us on stage as we discover the backstage secrets of this bold, visceral reinterpretation.
In Penthesilea’s UK Premiere, discover how Internationaal Theater Amsterdam and director Eline Arbo defy traditional staging by fusing Greek tragedy and 80’s rock concert.
Heinrich von Kleist’s original novel tells the story of Penthesilea, Queen of the Amazons, who falls in love with the Greek commander Achilles during a Trojan War battle.
This tour will be led by our Head of Production Paul Claydon. We look forward to bringing you behind the curtain for this exciting production.
Due to lack of level access backstage at the Lyceum Theatre, this event is inaccessible for wheelchair users or people with other mobility requirements.
