MANKATO – Minnesota State University, Mankato’s Department of Performing Arts continues the Mainstage theatre season with Euripides’ “The Women of Troy.”

A timeless Greek tragedy, Euripides’ “The Women of Troy” is a gripping and haunting portrayal of the human cost of war, told through the eyes of the women left behind. In the wake of Troy’s destruction, the surviving Trojan women face exile and unimaginable loss. Stripped of power but not of dignity, they confront their fate with courage, defiance, and heartbreaking humanity.
