Troy has fallen – 
and the Cretan General Idomeneus 
is on his way home. 

But the Gods are angry (aren’t they always?) and so now Idomeneus must make a great sacrifice – but these sacrifices never pan out in the way we’d like them to.  Now our General is really in trouble. 

This extraordinary new play, inspired by The Iliad and written by one of Germany’s leading writers Roland Schimmelpfennig, receives its UK premiere in a bold new production by Gate Associate Artist Ellen McDougall.
 
The running time of Idomeneus is 1 hour and 10 minutes, without an interval.
