Joins us for a brand new, searing adaptation of Euripides' infamous play The Trojan Women, directed and created by Anna Rebek (Yale, Columbia, Juilliard). Set in the Meditteranean haven of Casa Clara (218 East 25th St), audiences will be just inches away from some of the most harrowing events in all of classical tragedy. The show opens just after the mythical violence of the Trojan War (Homer's Iliad, Virgil's Aeneid) when all the women of Troy have been rounded up only to be split off as prizes to their Greek conquerors. Lead by their former queen Hecuba, these women experience the devastation of being a conquered people. This play resonates with the current state of war, exploring how often our humanity is the cost of victory, and as women and children continue to suffer the greatest consequences of battle.
With large scale masks, a new score by composer Zachary Detrick (Juilliard, Peabody), and costumes by Brynne Oster-Bainnson (NYU), the audio-visual world of the play will be transporting. Come experience this masterpiece brought to life as never before.
