The production begins previews July 19, opens August 3 and runs through August 14.
One of Shakespeare's most rarely produced plays, Troilus and Cressida is described as a 鈥渟urprisingly modern epic about the hot blood, hot thoughts and hot deeds of the ancient Greeks. In the seventh year of the Trojan War, Troilus, a young prince, pines for the affections of Cressida, a bright young woman who knows how to play it cool. Meanwhile, the heroes of the Iliad 鈥� Ajax, Ulysses, Achilles and the kings they serve 鈥� debate whether to return the dangerously beautiful captive Helen or continue to fight without end. Nations and lovers alike do battle in this sly, piercing drama about romance and revenge in a world at war.鈥�
