The Bacchae: An African Choral Ballet is a bold reimagining of Euripides’ timeless tragedy through a powerful South African lens. In a divided city yearning for renewal, the mysterious Dionysus arrives, promising freedom, ecstasy, and spiritual awakening. As his intoxicating presence sweeps through Thebes, women abandon convention and a chorus of voices rises in ecstatic defiance.
Pentheus, the rigid young ruler, vows to restore order and crush the growing movement.
But curiosity and desire draw him dangerously close to the very force he condemns.
