An operatic panorama inspired by Greek blues and Cretan rebel songs. An Iliad for modern Greece, Three Graces dramatizes the Cretan struggle for independence in poetic and imaginative fashion, using music, dance and live puppetry. In a swell of failed rebellion, forbidden lust, West and East – two blood brothers wrestle like devils in the night.
