LA Times says

`Orestes 3.0: Inferno` a visual feast of the Greeks.

The Hollywood Reporter says

"Bold and vigorous reimagining of Euripides tragedy made trenchantly relevant to contemporary moral issues, enhanced by a striking, stylish and focused production."

KCRW says

You can experience not only this ethos but also the wonderful `pillaging` in his new play Orestes 3.0:Inferno, receiving its world premiere at City Garage.

About Orestes

Award winning playwright Charles L. Mee creates a stunning new take on the Orestes myth for director Frederique Michel and the company at City Garage. Euripides`s ancient Greek tragedy of crime piled on crime - patricide, matricide, incest - is redrawn in the hauntingly familiar terms of our contemporary world: political paralysis, purposeless wars, random acts of meaningless violence.

About

The company at City Garage has been producing innovative, award-winning theater in Santa Monica for nearly 25 years. It was founded in 1987 by Artistic Director Frederique Michel and Managing Director Charles Duncombe. It creates and presents original works that explore contemporary ideas and issues in a distinctive, strongly physical, highly visual, multi-disciplinary style.

The company's work with Fassbinder texts has been featured in two German documentaries: Fassbinder in Hollywood, and Fassbinder: Love, Life, and Celluloid. Three of its Heiner Muller productions have been discussed in the book Muller in America published in New York in 2003. In the summer of 2004, in New York, the company received an Otto, a national award for political theatre (past recipients include Laurie Anderson, Bread and Puppets Theater, Steppenwolf Theater, and Heiner Muller). It was honored that year alongside Robert Wilson, El Teatro Campesino, and Charles Mee.
