Diagonally [Stage Reading]
by Panayota Dimopoulou
‘-How do you kill someone without even touching them? -Thought, too, can kill.’
A man and a woman, siblings, in their parents’ house. Their father was murdered at the hands of their mother and her lover. Footfalls echo diagonally along the attic. What is to be done? A contemporary take on the myth of Electra and Orestes. No need for weapons this time; thought, too, can kill.
