Reactions to the PBS Special of Clytemnestra

From watching the made -for -TV version of Clytemnestra, I was inundated with a new understanding of how watching a performance filmed rather than live is a very  different experience. It was very interesting how the film used fade-in and jump cuts to transition from one scene to another, to emphasize on ideas and symbolism that cannot be as exaggerated during a staging. While a performance is sometimes more exciting live,  I found that because the version was made with specific filming techniques, I found myself just as engaged in watching the film as I would have been during a live show. I love Greek mythology and perhaps that is why I especially liked Clytemnestra. Now that  I have watched the whole work, I have a better understanding of the variation I am learning from the piece. It is so wonderful working so closely with the Company members and I am excited to watch  the company rehearsals. Overall I have had a great experience this past week and I am overall astonished how much we can fit into a week as well as how fast time flies!
