That Witch Helen
That Witch Helen
The face that launched a thousand ships finally gets to speak.
Meet Helen, before Troy, in this feminist retelling of the Ancient Greek epic. Witness her divine beginnings (yes, she did hatch from an egg!), her youth as a Spartan warrior, her fateful decision to leave her husband, and finally the decade of brutal war and destruction that follows.
That Witch Helen blends myth, movement, and storytelling to give Helen of Troy, one of history’s most hated women, a chance to tell her own story.
"What happens to all the clever little girls?"
Written and performed by Catie Ridewood. Directed by Janette Eddisford.
