Theatre review: The Suppliant Women - 'Energy, aplomb and a surprising vocal dexterity'

The Suppliant Women at the Gaiety (Dublin Theatre Festival) - 4/5

The daughters of Danaus have come to the Greek city of Argos, across the Mediterranean from Africa, seeking asylum and to escape forced marriage.

Aeschylus wrote this play some 2,500 years ago, but you won’t win any prizes for seeing why David Greig’s new version is being staged in 2017.
