Trojan Women at Hofstra University Joan and Donald Schaeffer Black Box Theater

By Euripides. Translated by Alan Shapiro 
Directed by Royston Coppenger

After 10 long years of war, the great city of Troy has fallen. Only the mothers, wives, and daughters of its slaughtered warriors survive. Nothing worse can befall them. Then it does, blow after blow. Their previous lives in ruins, the women find unimagined resources in each other and themselves. "Trojan Women" is a thousands-year-old tale of courage, resilience, and hope in the face of utter devastation.
