Western Connecticut State University department of theatre arts closes an adaptation of “Lysistrata” by Aristophanes, in the Berkshire Theatre in Berkshire Hall on the university’s Midtown campus.
As the men prepare to head off to war, the women, led by Lysistrata, wage their own battle — of the sexes. Apparently even in Aristophanes’ day, the quickest way for women to get their point across was by turning a cold shoulder to the amorous advances of the men in their lives. The only hope for the men was to comply with the social change the women demand: if you want to make love, stop making war.
Performances March 9 at 8 p.m. on March 10 at 2 and 8 p.m. and March 11 at 3 p.m.
