Girl on an Altar
Marina Carr
What follows is a dangerous battle fuelled by love, grief and power. Marina Carr's adaptation of the infamous Greek myth brings Clytemnestra's story to the fore and asks if it is possible to forgive the unforgivable. He turns to me in hall one evening, wine on him, sentimental.
