Plot:

This contemporary reimagining of Aristophanes' classic play, Lysistrata, places the timeless story in the heart of today's turbulent Chicago. In a neighborhood ravaged by gang violence, a resolute woman named Lysistrata rallies a diverse group of women to unite against the devastating cycle of conflict. Drawing from the original play's themes of unity, pacifism and sexual politics, this adaptation tackles modern issues such as gender roles, community activism, and the corrosive effects of violence on society. As tensions rise and the stakes grow higher, Lysistrata and her fellow women embark on a daring and transformative journey to restore hope and harmony in their divided city. This bold adaptation offers a fresh perspective on the power of collective action and the enduring appeal of timeless stories.
