‘The Oresteia’ at the Bridge Theatre

Sparks continue our long standing support of the Bridge Theatre, supplying the lighting equipment for their latest production of ‘The Oresteia’

Lighting Designer Nick Shlieper

A contemporary family wakes up in a Greek myth and can’t seem to find a way out of their hellish destiny.

Writer and director Simon Stone is joined set designer Lizzie Clachan, lighting designer Nick Schlieper, and casting director Jessica Ronane CDG.

“The Oresteia is one of the theatre’s great foundational texts and it hasn’t lost any of its potency to this day. A family haunted by its part in an unjust war, the painful burden of inherited trauma and inter-generational conflict, the descent into an increasingly merciless vortex of violence: as long as humankind wages wars and as long as families tear themselves apart this story will remain painfully, cathartically relevant. It is with great excitement that we embark on bringing this tale into our times at the Bridge Theatre.” Simon Stone

The Oresteia is produced by London Theatre Company and Wouter van Ransbeek.

The Oresteia plays at the Bridge Theatre until 19th September 2026. For more information and tickets please visit bridgetheatre.co.uk
