Lysistrata
by Aristophanes
February 28-March 3 |
Complete with all the appropriate raunchiness and naughtiness, one of the world’s oldest—certainly funniest—anti-war plays comes to the Gifford stage. A young Athenian woman, Lysistrata, is tired of the war and enlists her women friends to help end it. Her solution is to have all of the women withhold sex from their men until the fighting stops! Warning: Lysistrata is not appropriate for children or those offended by adult humor.
