Phaedra's Love

By Sarah Kane
Presented by Renaissance Austin

 

Featuring both live theatre and film, this play is the ultimate psychological drama on the theme of "la femme". The Greek story of a stepmother's illicit passion for her indifferent stepson. Kane’s Royal Family comes unraveled as it tries to untangle the threads of its relationships. As the various members battle with their anxieties and dysfunctions, too much is revealed, thus inciting the wrath of their adoring public.
