First look production images have been released for the NYT REP’s re-imagined production of the Ancient Greek classic Bakkhai, which plays the NYT Workshop Theatre until 5th May.
It is the final production in the REP’s 10th Anniversary season, following critically-acclaimed productions of Much Ado About Nothing and Gone Too Far!
A Queer reimagining of the Ancient Greek classic. Ancient Greece and gig theatre collide in a boldly reimagined Bakkhai like you’ve never seen it before. Underscored with original electronic music, filled with celebratory raucous dance and devised with some of Britain’s most exciting new talent from the NYT REP.
The NYT REP was established to provide intensive real-world experience each year to a group of young performers and creatives, and celebrates its 10th Anniversary in 2023. Bakkhai is adapted from Euripides original text by Anne Carson and directed by Maisie Newman, recipient of the 2022 Bryan Forbes Directors Bursary.
