Monday, the Lysiustrata Project will perform readings of Aristophanes’ anti-war play. “In the United States, as many as 1,000 separate productions are planned – in all 50 American states – 33 in Massachusetts and 18 in Chicago alone. In Canada, the play will be recited in seven provinces, at more than two dozen venues and, of course, in two languages. On the same day, there will be readings in London, Paris, Berlin, Athens, Beirut – indeed, almost every major world capital. Two readings are planned in Reykjavik, one in Damascus and nine in Aristophanes’s homeland, Greece.”
