Troy is in ruins. Its men are dead. Its women are captives and the
victorious Greeks are camped in the ashes preparing to sail home.
Four quarrelling women drawn together by grief... Four exhausted
soldiers who hate each other's guts... A King who falls for a girl
so mad she can see the audience... A teenage princess dreaming of
the Underworld... And a lonely man of conscience trying to get it
all down on paper... Award-winning poet and playwright Glyn Maxwell
rips up two Greek tragedies and makes a modern play from the
fragments. A witty and passionate retelling of Euripides' Women Of
Troy and Hecuba, After Troy exposes the cruelties of war both then
and now.
