Marjorie Lyons Playhouse opens a new season, indeed, a new post-Busieck (the retired veteran director) era, with a comedy filled with double-entendres.
Aristophanes' anti-war, pro-feminist satire, Lysistrata, presents women who speak out. They have the wherewithal to challenge men and their inexorable wars. The story's gambit is that the women organize a sex strike to get the attention of the warmongers.
See Lysistrata, directed by Heather Peak and with set design by Don Hooper, at MLP, Centenary College, Sept 22 to Sept 24 at 8 pm and Sept 25 at 2 pm. The run will resume Sept 29 to Oct 1 at 8 pm.
Box office: 869-5242.
