Jane Lumley's Iphigenia, November 2013 at Lancaster Castle

 
A performance of 'The Tragedie of Euripedes called Iphigeneia' will be on at Lancaster Castle from the 19th-21st November 2013 at 7:30pm. This is the first production from The Rose Company, an all-female classical theatre company established in 2013.

'The Tragedie of Euripedes called Iphigeneia' dramatises how Iphigeneia is brought to Aulis to be sacrificed so that the Greek ships can sail to Troy. The play was first translated into English in 1555 by Lady Jane Lumley, and is the first known dramatic text by a woman in English.
