Trojan Women

Trojan Women has been a popular source material for AOD Actors of Dionysus and we have performed and toured it several times – in 1996, 2003, 2004 and most recently in 2014.

Working with David Stuttard’s translation and thereafter his adaptation Euripides’s play is a powerful meditation on war and its aftermath and the devastating consequences for the women and children who survive.

Please see the Trojan Women essay book available in our shop for purchase.
