Queens of Syria and Euripides


on tour
A modern tragedy told by the ‘Queens of Syria’ An all-female cast of Syrian refugees fuses Euripides’ ‘The Trojan Women’ with their own life stories
“I have an anger and a message to pass to you. We come from the Troy of this age … hundreds of thousands of victims … millions of refugees … everyone wants to bomb us but no one wants to accept us into their homes … only the sea opens his arms to us without any preconditions … When did it become normal to kill people?”
