The play Phaedra's Love was written by Sarah Kane. The play is based on the Greek tragedy Hippolytus by Euripides. 

Phaedra's Love is a radical rewrite of the Greek, classic tragedy about incest and destructivity.

The production is a naked and provocative story about Queen Phaedra's desperate love for her stepson Hippolytus.
