PlayTime Round 5: Pasiphy

PlayTime, our series devoted to new plays, returns with a reading of Pasiphy by Washington Post Opinion columnist, author, and playwright, Alexandra Petri, as directed by Laura Hirschberg.

As described by the playwright herself, Pasiphy is a “weird Greek tragicomedy about Minotaurs and parenting,” and from our perspective it is a fascinating remolding of myths and modern sensitivities, toward a wildly funny and poignant end–come join us!
