The only thing I love more than a radical adaptation of a Greek myth is one set in SPACE—and when that play is as clever and well-constructed as this one, I find myself utterly smitten! I love how all of the characters are smart, specific, and ambitious, especially the women. The balance of magic, spiritualism, technology, and pragmatism is fascinating - plus, I loved that knowing more about the original myth helped me put the pieces together, but the original storytelling still surprised me and kept me on my toes! Plus, the final haunting image? EVERYTHING!
