The background in the myth.
Agamemnon and his fleet cannot sail to Troy. The lack of wind did not allow ships to sail.
Artemis asks to change things for the better and gets the sacrifice of Iphigenia, daughter of Agamemnon.
Iphigenia today.
"Running/Iphigenia" is a collaboration between Miriam Palma and Lina Prosa who have long experienced a collaboration that brings together their different languages related to the text, the voice, singing. The appointment this time is with a new stage of the show, the result of an additional search path, which even more enhances the linguistic diversity of thethe dramatic plot.
Iphigenia, yesterday and today, it's all in the ambiguity of the title: running as a musical Act, performing as an act of condemnation to death. The crux of this ambiguity is enclosed at one stage presence that is at the same time the executioner and the victim: Agamemnon and Iphigenia/father/daughter.

Miriam Palma, actress/performer, gave birth on the stage of the teatro romano in a monologue/dialogue/Agamennone Iphigenia itself original, characterized by the use of vocalization between spoken and Sung, as well as issuance of the cue drama, albeit fleeting, meteorology which prompted the King to sacrifice his daughter, just as today affects the lives of all of us.
The myth reported human conditions of today, so in a trial with cues also folk and almost fable-like tones, as in the nursery rhyme "there was once a King Bafé, Viscotta and Miné," in an excursus varied and certainly out of the ordinary.
