An industrial port of a war-torn city: women survivors wait to be shipped abroad. Officials come and go. A grandmother, once queen, watches as her remaining family are taken from her one by one. The city burns around them. Don Taylor’s version of Euripides’ anti-war play, The Women of Troy, was adapted and presented in the Lyttelton auditorium of the National Theatre. This edition features an introduction by Don Taylor and his poem ’Return to Sarajevo’, written in response to the play.
