“Electricidad” Mark Taper Forum

The West Coast premiere of this play by Luis Alfaro, which sets
Sophocles’ “Electra” in a Los Angeles barrio,
will surely bring some real-world grit to an otherwise stagey Taper
season. While modern retellings of Greek works are almost always
hits or misses, this perfectly adapted setting for Sophocles’
classic makes us pretty optimistic about this one. Check out
