Agamemnon, the leader of Athens, takes off for Sicily to build a broad regional coalition against Troy and secure military assistance, hoping to finally bring the prolonged war with Troy to a decisive end.
Mid-flight, the game changes: the leader of Troy offers Agamemnon a chilling deal. At 30,000 feet, the plane becomes a pressure cooker in which everyone is pushed to the limit and no one can escape. A decision must be reached before the wheels touch the ground.
A contemporary, suspenseful and topical adaptation inspired by the immortal Greek mythology.
The performance uses a cigarette-like stage prop.
