Dartington Playgoers present ‘The Assembly Women’, by Aristophanes, directed by Annie Bowie at 7.30pm each evening in Studio 31, Aller Park, Dartington Hall estate. Politics? The economy? Women gossiping about how much better a job they could make of it than men? What’s new?! Well nothing perhaps - apart from the fact that 2400 years ago a Greek writer gave them a go at it! First performed in 392 BCE, Aristophanes presents us with an Athens that is in decline and malfunctioning to the extent that the unthinkable becomes possible - women get a crack at things. This is a comedy about politics, power and a few fake beards. Join us for a romp in rude behaviour and mischief! See: http://www.playgoers.co.uk/.
