Lysistrata
October 2, 2025 @ 7:30 AM - 10:00 PM
Written by Aristphanes, adapted by Ellen McGlaughlin, directed by Don Mays
Produced in special arrangement with Playscripts, Inc. (playscripts.com)
Follow Lysistrata, our Athenian heroine, as she creates an…unconventional…movement to end the Peloponnesian War. The women of Greece vow a prohibition in the bedroom until the violence of war has ceased. If the women of Greece refuse to love, will the men refuse to war? This fast-paced, comedic retelling of the classic Aristophanes play brings to light issues society has been discussing for millennia. Will we finally figure out how to make love, not war?
