Helen in her Homeland: a reflection in three rooms by Alexandra Haddad

A reflection on the power and pain of beauty, Helen in Her Homeland shares how Helen of Troy and Paris met, fled, started, and ended a war. Themes of sex, gender, identity, immigration, and violence, all explored by a woman who, throughout history, has remained voiceless. What is a home–the place we were born, or what we make of it? A modern poetic and mythological retelling of what the face that launched a thousand ships might have seen, and said, in Troy. This play depicts violence. Gendered violence, sexual violence, racialized violence, homophobia, hatred, warfare, colonialism, suicide, and death.
