Translation for "penthée" to english
Penthée
Translation examples
Ames débuts, j'ai mis en scène "Les Bacchantes"... Lorsque Penthée est tué par sa mère et les Furies, on rabat un arbre pour le lier à une branche, et puis on le projette en l'air, on le taille en pièces, on lui coupe la tête... Ma première réaction a été de trouver une tête à la morgue et de la montrer !
You know, when I was a young director, and I directed the Bacchae at Yale... my impulse, when Pentheus has been killed by his mother and the Furies... and they pull the tree back, and they tie him to the tree... and fling him into the air, and he flies through space and he's killed... and they rip him to shreds and I guess cut off his head... my impulse was that the thing to do was to get a head from the New Haven morgue... and pass it around the audience.
