Lysistrata by Aristophanes (Larnaca)

Cyprus : Lysistrata by Aristophanes (Larnaca)

The Cyprus Theatre Organization this summer presents a modern, fresh production of the classic world-famous anti-war comedy Lysistrata by Aristophanes.

Lysistrata is one of the few surviving plays written by Aristophanes. Originally performed in classical Athens in 411 BC, it is a comic account of one woman's extraordinary mission to end The Peloponnesian War. Lysistrata convinces the women of Greece to withhold sexual privileges from their husbands and lovers as a means of forcing the men to negotiate peace, a strategy however that inflames the battle between the sexes. The play is notable for its exposé of sexual relations in a male-dominated society and for its use of both double entendre and explicit obscenities.
