Following her acclaimed work in *Europeana* (2018) and winning the prestigious Ibsen Scholarship, Rafika Chawishe makes her U.S. debut at La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club with *Agamemnon: The Circle of Blood*. This reimagining of Aeschylus' tragedy combines cinematic media with classical storytelling, offering a gripping monologue that examines war, power, and injustice.

Through the character of Clytemnestra, the production explores the enduring cycles of violence and the complex ties between the West and the Middle East. It is a powerful reflection on breaking free from history’s mistakes and the quest for peace in a world torn by conflict.
