Lysistrata

Aristophanes' timeless comedy Lysistrata takes on new life in this vibrant adaptation by Robert M. Coles. Set in ancient Greece but resonating with contemporary themes, this updated classic follows the fearless Lysistrata as she rallies the women of Greece to end a devastating war by refusing intimacy with their husbands. Blending the traditional elements of Greek theatre with modern storytelling and humor, this production offers a fresh, thought-provoking look at the enduring struggles for peace and women’s rights. Hilarious, bold, and unapologetically clever, Lysistrata promises an unforgettable evening of wit and wisdom at Playhouse 615.
