Publisher's Notes
The Bacchae is one of the most modern and one of the most timeless plays of the ancient Greek theater. This new, free version by the Nigerian playwright Wole Soyinka was commissioned for performance by the National Theater at the Old Vic, London, in the summer of 1973. Soyinka's text displays abundant evidence of a poet's ear for the cadences and rhythms of chorus and solo verse as well as commanding dramatic use of the central social and religious myth.
