Premier production, in a new translation, surprises and delights with its intriguing take on an ancient tale.

In Euripides’ Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world never abandoned her husband Menelaus for the Trojan prince, Paris. Instead, the gods made Paris a phantom Helen from a cloud, and dropped off the real Helen in Egypt for safe-keeping during the Trojan War. Seventeen years later, Menelaus lands shipwrecked in Egypt with his reclaimed phantom bride. How will Helen persuade him that she is the real Helen? Can she escape marrying the Egyptian king and prevent him from killing Menelaus? Can her cunning win them a ship home to Greece? Is this a tragedy or a comedy?

Written by William Shakespeare
Directed by Roger Ellis
SEPTEMBER 30–OCTOBER 9, 2016

Shakespeare’s darkest comedy tackles the twin evils of power and corruption with outrageous humor, giving hope to the hopeless and courage to the powerless. His city caught in a moral free-fall, the Duke of Vienna hands over power to Lord Angelo, who enforces long-dormant codes of chastity with zealous fervor. When Isabella, a pious young nun, pleads for the life of her condemned brother, Angelo's response is surprisingly sensual — revealing a web of desire, deception, and hypocrisy that infects every
corner of society.

September 30*, October 1*, 6**, and 7 at 7:30 p.m.
October 2*, 8, and 9 at 2 p.m.

*GVSU Family Weekend

**Sign language interpretation available.
