Phaedra

After years of fierce focus on her political career, a powerful politician turns her attention to her neglected personal life. When a figure from her past reappears, a radical journalist who has fled persecution, buried lust and loneliness surge to the surface, and her actions threaten to destroy everything she has built. Simon Stone's bold contemporary reimagining of Seneca's tragedy transplants the myth of Phaedra's forbidden desire into the corridors of modern British power.
