Trinity Rep. Free Play Reading: The Persians by Aeschylus
By: Randy Rice
"The Persians" is the oldest surviving play in history by Greek playwright Aeschylus.
This free play reading enhances Trinity's world premiere Boots on the Ground.
Aeschylus (472 BC), the Greek playwright (and many in his audience) had fought in the war against the Persians, yet the story follows the point of view of the vanquished enemy.
Aeschylus gave his foes and his homeland the same degree of honor and respect. Trinity is giving audiences the opportunity to find common ground in these "war plays," written two millennia apart.
The seventy-five minute reading will be held on Saturday May 13th at 2PM in the Dowling Theater, Trinity Repertory Company, 201 Washington Street, Providence, and admission is free.
Space is limited, so reservations are required: (401) 521-1100 x411
