Bosnia, Gaza, Mariupol — a woman with her child, alone in a devastated city, confronts the indiscriminate cruelty of war. Euripides’ The Trojan Women was the original anti-war play, first performed in Athens in 415 BCE as a searing protest against the Peloponnesian War. Now, in a taut, solo, contemporary adaptation commissioned by and first performed at the Interbalkan Festival of Ancient Greek Drama in Athens, Greece, A Trojan Woman by Sara Farrington brings this ancient cry of anguish into the present. Directed by The Tank's award-winning Artistic Director Meghan Finn and starring international actress Drita Kabashi.
