Electra
Electra is devastated when her mother, a successful white feminist writer and self-appointed leader of the #metoo movement, cancels her father, a human rights lawyer, over allegations of cheating and sexual assault. Passionate and full of rage, Electra wrestles with the inheritance of her biracial identity as she plots to exact justice on her mother. An evisceration of cancel culture, this contemporary adaptation of Sophocles' masterpiece examines the ramifications of social death devoid of futurisms, boldly reframing Clytemnestra as Manifest Destiny herself in order to ask the question: what do you have left when the deed is done?
