About this ebook

"Five Stars."
- TimeOut.com

Here are six enthusiastically received plays by Charles Mee inspired by Greek tragedies: Iphigenia 2.0, Trojan Women, Orestes 2.0, Agamemnon 2.0, Night and Day, and The Bacchae 2.1.

"How fresh can a play based on a 2,400-year-old story possibly be? . . . Iphigenia 2.0 proves to be more timely than any drama in the city today."
- nj.com

"Playwright Charles Mee is a master at mining ancient myths for the truths that transcend memory-torturing details and reimagining those truths for contemporary theatergoers."
