Troy is lost. The great city is in ruins. All its men are dead, and its women await their fate at the hands of the Greek victors. Among them is Hecuba whose sons have all been killed in battle, and whose daughters are in present danger.

This powerful drama examines the aftermath of war and asks if hope can be found in the face of immense grief and cruelty.

In Linda Marshall Griffiths鈥檚 contemporary set re-imagining of Euripides's powerful anti-war drama the chorus of women are led by a female journalist Sappho and the other voices are those of the women all over the city who are recording and broadcasting their testimonies on social media so that the world can witness what is happening to them.

A reminder that war is a thing of the present. The suffering endured by the women of Troy is still being endured by female victims of military action today. It is also a reminder of the continued repression of women鈥檚 rights and threat to women鈥檚 liberties globally.
