A pair of twins; one cisgender, one transgender; are reunited after a decade apart by a Gods-sent mission: murder their mother to avenge her regicide. They are dual heirs to the throne of Argos, a small militaristic city-state under the complete control of their mother, Klytemnestra. Elektra, who's dealt with her mother’s violent transphobia for years, is ready to kill. Orestes, returning home in secret after years abroad, is not so sure. Argos buckles under the strain of war and the streets hum with violence and talk of prophets. Brimming with revolutionary fervor, ELEKTRIC is a radical, trans woman-centered retelling of the Oresteia.

Scenes from ELEKTRIC performed at Feinstein’s/54 Below May 2022.
