Helen of Troy

Helen of Troy

Helen of Troy is a fresh interpretation of the story of a spoiled but beautiful princess, told by a very biased Greek Chorus. When Helen runs away from an arranged marriage, her brother-in-law Agamemnon launches a thousand ships to bring her back. Helen finds herself trapped between a self-obsessed Trojan prince, Greek soldiers thirsting for plunder, and meddlesome deities who love nothing more than a good conflagration. As the Chorus break free of the old way of telling the story and anoint Helen their new hero, must become more than just a pretty face.
