There’s a lot of dramatic gnashing of teeth from elektra, and also Clytemnestra. It’s a bit hamlet in being a lot of talk and not a whole lot of action. And I know there’s a decade of war to be got through but unless something really important is going to happen I don’t feel like we need too much of what the women were doing, when it’s “nothing different”

I know Elektra is all “oooh revenge” but I just don’t understand why. There’s no real convincing reason presented.

She can’t quite work out whether she wants the place to seem modern and therefore relatable or whether she wants it to foreign and, perhaps, exotic. Doesn’t seem to me like there’s a huge attempt to evoke “Ancient Greece”, not least because she’s actually referring to “Greece” which is hello ever so anachronistic.
