The Trojan Women (Murray Translation)
by Euripides
Euripides' play follows the fates of the women of Troy after their city has been sacked, their husbands killed, and as their remaining families are about to be taken away as slaves. However, it begins first with the gods Athena and Poseidon discussing ways to punish the Greek armies because they condoned Ajax the Lesser for dragging Cassandra away from Athena's temple. What follows shows how much the Trojan women have suffered as their grief is compounded when the Greeks dole out additional deaths and divide their shares of women. This translation by Gilbert Murray was published in 1915. (Summary by Wikipedia and Elizabeth Klett)Cast:Poseidon: Martin GeesonPallas Athena: SweetlilbirdyHecuba: Ruth GoldingChorus leader: RansomChorus 2: <a href="http://librivox.
