The Bacchae | Free Full Performance by The Classical Theatre of Harlem
Ispirato alla riscrittura “le baccanti” di Giulia Marino. <3
“You are a terrible man and you are doomed to suffer a terrible fate.”
“But I too am terrible, Pentheus. And it is time for you to see what I am capable of.”

“i don’t dance,” pentheus snapped back. “anyway, what’s gay pride day? what are they proud of?”
Dionysus, the god of wine, vegetation, festivity, and on a darker note, madness and frenzy. Here we see our jovial deity riding a leopard and wearing a leopard skin, holding aloft his sacred wine chalice in one hand, and his pine cone tipped staff “Thyrsus”. Below him dance his attendants in the cult of Dionysus, the sileni,satyr, centaur, woman dancer, and bull and woman, with a centaur playing the two head flute pip (AULOS) further back. In the upper right hand background we can see hanging grapes for the wine, and below; a darker representation of Dionysus; the mad frenzy. Here we see the MAENADs;(“raving ones" ), women followers who drink and dance into violent frenzies. In Euripedes play, "the Bacchae”, the Maenads, in a state of delusion, tear apart their own king Pentheus, limb from limb, thinking him a lion. Even poor Orpheus, the greatest lyre player of all, was torn apart when he refused to play for them in a state of mourning after returning from the underworld without his wife, Eurydice).
If you've been following along for the last 6 weeks, then you get a free cup of ambrosia! cheers! I’m currently deciding what to do next, but it will either be “heroes and monsters" or "the Tragedies.” So please stay tuned for lots more artwork in the coming weeks and months. which i’m hoping to compile into a book later in the year! ;)
And as always, if you want to share this image I would appreciate it!
I think women in myth should be allowed to go insane actually. as a treat.
