Description

In the aftermath of the Trojan War, the royal-born Andromache finds herself in far-off Greece enslaved by the family of the man who killed her husband and forced her into the role of concubine. She is not only forced to share her bed with her captor, Neoptolemus, but also bears him a son. This draws the ire of his wife, Hermione, who is convinced that Andromacheโ€™s presence and actions have kept her husband far from their marriage bed and left her childless. When Neoptolemus is away, Hermione sees an opportunity to rid herself of a romantic rival and her husbandโ€™s illegitimate son. This sets off events that will result in violence and further loss. This English adaptation of Euripidesโ€™ classic play is in rhymed verse to create a close approximation of the rhythms and poetry of the original Greek text.
