Keeping Up with the Classics - Agave

In this episode, we dive into Euripides' Bacchae and take a closer look at this twisted story of revenge, insecurity, and hubris through a different lens: considering the themes of gender, justice and sympathy while also questioning who the true victim is at the end of this play. We also make a few parallels between the critically acclaimed (and generally amazing) film 'Midsommar' (2019) and The Bacchae, drawing connections between the Hårga cult and the Bacchants. We hope you enjoy it!
