We challenged the cast of Bacchae to summarise the plot of the play against the clock. Needless to say the results were, well...chaotic!

This ain’t no classic play

The Bacchae aren’t standing on the sidelines whilst the men have all the fun. These fangirls are stage-storming powerhouses ready to cause chaos in Thebes.

Whilst the Bacchae maraud in the mountains, their god Dionysos is taking part in his own messed-up family Olympics. He’s here to bring down his cousin King Pentheus. All to prove to the chorus of women that he’s more than just the god of rhyme, wine and a good time.

Indhu Rubasingham (The Father and the Assassin) begins her tenure as National Theatre Director by bringing Nima Taleghani’s (Heartstopper) exciting new version of Euripides’ ultimate tragedy to life through rhythm, movement and music.


We believe that great theatre sparks imagination and brings people together.

Every day we strive to make the world a better place through theatre; entertaining and inspiring audiences around the world, using our creativity, expertise and unique reach.

You’ll find us in theatres. In cinemas. In schools. And online.
