Two plays by the acclaimed Irish author: an adaption of Euripides and an emotionally bruising drama of three women obsessed with the same man (The New York Times).TriptychWith searing acuity, O'Brien presents the story of three women-a mistress, a wife, and a daughter-who are all helplessly drawn to Henry: their lover, husband, and father. While Henry himself never appears, his specter is never absent as these women confront the ways that love can simultaneously liberate and entrap. Triptychis a powerful work that explores sex, marriage, and predatory relationships.IphigeniaIn this modern take on the Greek tragedy, O'Brien takes creative license with Euripides's tale of a daughter sacrificed for the sake of war. This taut, contemporary version presents, in O'Brien's own words, a more equal representation of the power and presence of both male and female characters (Edna O'Brien, Independent, UK).Intriguingly original . . . emotionally brave and engagingly clever. -R. Hurwitt,The San Francisco Chronicle
