About

A play by Sussex University Drama Society (SUDS) and Sussex Tech and Backstage Society (STABS).

A tale of tragedy and the violence of human nature -- Andromache & Neoptolemus. Following star-crossed lovers during the final months of the Trojan War; Andromache is a recently widowed mother trying to find peace -- Neo fights on the opposite side of the war; anomalistically wanting to make his father proud. In dreams gifted by the Gods themselves, they know not who the other is, but love them regardless. Will that all change when Neo receives a prophecy to kill the prince of Troy?
