ABOUT AFTER THE TROJAN WOMEN
A chorus of women across cultures, identities, and generations gather in a threshold where time collapses, where worlds collide, where women stand. This epic new work inspired by Euripides’ classic meets three modern Syrian women after a wild storm brings them to the shores of Turkey as the ancient Trojan Women prepare for their voyage to Greece.
Thrilling, heartbreaking, and inspiring, After the Trojan Women will sweep you across millennia and cultures of women in times of war and perseverance.
