Emerson Stage Presents: ‘Good Breeding’
Good Breeding is a highly theatrical and contemporary retelling of The Oresteia, where Aeschylus’ timeless trilogy of revenge and justice meets our current collective unconscious. The language shifts seamlessly back and forth between poetic Greek in translation and almost “action movie” catch phrasing, allowing us to travel from the heights of Mt. Olympus to the depths of the underworld, from the house of Atreus, to the battlefields of Troy. The adaptation retains the original story’s central conflict between humanity and the gods while wrestling with the concept of divine intervention and abandonment in surprising, darkly comic, and often brutal ways.
Showtimes:
Thursday, February 20, 8:00 pm
Friday, February 21, 8:00 pm
Saturday, February 22, 2:00 and 8:00 pm
Sunday, February 23, 2:00 pm

Gallery Talk — In Conversation: Investigating the Material
Emerson Contemporary presents In Conversation: Investigating the Material, featuring artist Sarah Trahan and Zsuzsanna Szegedi, moderated by Leonie Bradbury.
Join us for an intimate conversation in the gallery with spacetime artists Trahan and Szegedi and the exhibition curator as they discuss their experiences collaborating with machines as each artist investigates digital technology through its imperfections. Learn what happens when the work of art has no center and exists across multiple media, both virtual and real, as it manifests the various stages of an unfolding process.
Spacetime (x, y, x + t) is a multi-dimensional exhibition that features experimental works by regional and international artists, features digital projections, 3D printed objects, inkjet prints, virtual reality drawings, video, site specific light installation, and a dancing robot.
The exhibition is on view January 22 – March 15. Emerson’s Media Art Gallery is open Wednesday through Sunday, from 12:00-7:00 pm. The exhibition and related programming are free and open to the public.
