Review:

"Carson's interpretation of ELECTRA conveys the uniqueness, the vibrancy, and the tradition that must have been there for the original audience...[T]he changing meter is a wonderful and successful way of revealing the psychic tumult that keeps ELECTRA on the edges of madness and violence..."
