HECUBA

Sunday, April 25, 2021 - 2 p.m.

Paul Creative Arts Center Johnson Theatre


An outdoor live production with a real live audience!

This searing drama by Euripides follows the dangerous trajectory from grief to vengeance. Hecuba, the Queen of fallen Troy, is about to be taken away as a slave to Greece. She has lost almost her entire family, but one final injustice turns her from hunted, to hunter. Against the backdrop of duplicitous politicians, a shaky democracy and greed, this production will fuse classical Greek theatre with a contemporary edge.

Presented with support from the UNH Department of Classics, Humanities and Italian.

Written by Euripides

Translated by Jay Kardan and Laura-Gray Street
