The city of Mycenae awaits with excitement the return of its great king, who has left for Troy.

But his great deeds and his great courage as king and condottiero will not be enough to appease the fury of his wife Clytemnestra, determined to revenge.

His return home will be full of extravagance and his fight for glory and his return will become a spectacular tragic farce.

The king wants to enjoy success, and he is too busy with events to realize what awaits him, but his faults and what he has decided to sacrifice to be what he has become will bring him to an inevitable end.

The reinterpretation of Aeschylus' tragedy becomes the basis for the exploration of the V.A.N. Collective, which continues its investigation of myth, passing through the tragic, playing with irony, music and paroxysm. In a bold mix of humor and drama, the story of Agamennone is enriched contemporary references to reinterpret one of the foundations of tragic culture.

Imagination and dynamism are the basis of the show, which plays with sustained rhythms, until it reaches the inevitable.

Agamemnon-man is not just a king.

He is a man with dreams, vices, weaknesses and ambitions, who ventures into the desire for greatness as if he were a superhero without awareness of his destiny and especially how much his past actions have already marked him.
