Les Mouches
Electra is a play by Rajiva Wijesinha. It is based on the "Oresteia" by Aeschylus, "Electra" by Sophocles, "Electra" by Euripides and "The Flies" by Jean-Paul Sartre. It was written in 1970, but a radio production in early 1971 was banned because of political sensitivity. The play was finally presented on radio by the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation in 1985, at which time a public reading was also held at the British Council in Colombo.
