It was developed by the Free Southern Theatre—the theater wing of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), orginally written and outlined by Junebug Productions and Roadside Theater, and finally adapted by Mixed Blood Theatre.

“A Trojan Woman is the original political protest. The Euripides version is the one play in the canon that needs no updating. With every day that passes in this unhinged new America, with every new war we are dragged into against our will, with every graphic act of violence against civilians we watch on TV, with every fresh blow against our human rights, I see The Trojan Women —- the symbols, politics, patterns, obfuscation, excuses, the generations of pain we inflict upon each other— our own species—- is in both this ancient work and the local news in 2026. This play is a mirror.”– Director Sara Farrington
