From Aristophenes (400 BC) To McLaughlin (2015). This fresh, fast-paced comedy update of the Aristophanes play follows Lysistrata, an Athenian who calls for the women of Greece to help end the 27-year Peloponnesian War. She proposes a radical plan: All Greek women must refuse to engage in lovemaking until the men see reason, lay down their arms, and come home to lie down with their wives in peace. The women agree to make the sacrifice, and all hell breaks loose as men wander the country in an agony of unsatisfied lust. Will Lysistrata and her crew accomplish what the politicians could not?
 
We are looking for approximately 10 women and 6 men. Depending on casting, some roles may be doubled up.
 
Age range: 18 to 80
