The Dionysus Project presents readings of scenes from Euripides’ Bacchae—an ancient play about the destructive power of intoxication—as a catalyst for guided audience discussions about the impact of substance abuse and addiction upon individuals, families, and communities.
Featuring performances by Ernie Hudson (Ghostbusters, Miss Congeniality), Chad Coleman (The Wire, The Walking Dead), Seth Gilliam (The Wire, The Walking Dead), and Marjolaine Goldsmith (Dress), and a chorus of local community members.
Co-Presented by Theater of War Productions, the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office, Hennepin County, North Memorial Health, and the Bloomberg American Health Initiative.
