American Stage Theater Extends LYSISTRATA Through 4/12

Due to audience demand, American Stage Theatre Company has extended by one week the run of the hit comedy, LYSISTRATA, thru April 12.

A "Pay-What-You-Can" night has been scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, April 7 (The After Hours performance of BAIT is cancelled for Tuesday, April 7).

"No sex, please, we're Greek" is the theme of Aristophanes' famous comedy LYSISTRATA, first performed in 411 B.C. The Peloponnesian War has been raging for two decades and the women are tired of it. So one brave lady - Lysistrata - has a plan. She gathers all of the women together to agree to a pact: no sex until the war is over. What happens then when the men return for a little R&R is bawdy, naughty, funny, sexy and shows again why the original Greek comedy is still so popular 2,500 years after it played at the Parthenon in Athens. The first Greek play in American Stage's history may well be the sexy sensation of the theatregoing season!
