Apollinaire Theatre, Teatro Chelsea, and the City of Chelsea have together created a truly special event that is bringing the whole community together to share in a haunting and beautiful portrayal of one of the world’s oldest surviving plays. The Suppliant Women is about the plight of refugees, moral and human rights, and democracy. It tells a story that echoes down the ages to find striking and poignant resonance today.
A large chorus of women play the title role, The Suppliant Women, expressing themselves through song and movement. There are four more evenings to check out The Suppliant Women: August 9, 10, 16, and 17. Come early to enjoy tasty food from Chelsea chefs, local brews, and live performances preshow—and stay late to meet the cast (and enjoy some more brews) For details visit www.apollinairetheatre.com.
