Based upon Euripides’ classic anti-war comedy, The Trojan Women, first produced during the Greek Peloponnesian War, examines the aftermath of the Trojan civilization through the eyes of its surviving women. Queen Hecuba, the slave-concubine Andromache, and Helen, the woman whose beauty started it all, meet in the ruins of Troy and together find victory in the female spirit amid the horrors visited upon them by both gods and men.
