84 Church St, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55455
Cost:
One of the first choreographic works to use cinematic techniques such as flashback, simultaneous narration, and stream of consciousness, Martha Graham’s only full-evening work has been deemed a 21st Century masterpiece. Moving back and forth across time and space, Clytemnestra takes place largely within the mind of the Queen of Mycenae and relives scenes of betrayal, revenge, murder, and finally reconciliation, in a dance that ends as it begins in the Underworld.
