well played

(5 Sterne)

A great classic well done. Very worth a listen. I found the chorus slightly difficult to understand but got accustomed to it. Thank you for this dramatization.

I truly enjoyed listening to this rendition of Electra. Particularly the use of voice effects for the chorus. Ask part were clearly distinguishable.

Electra and the other characters were played by a great cast, but the digitized voice was a bit distracting

(5 Sterne)

I like that each character has a different actor
