ABOUT THE SHOW
Troilus and Cressida is a play about two young Trojans who fall in love under occupation. However, they're separated by circumstance when Cressida is traded to the Greek camp against her will. But don't worry - there's not just tragedy. Like any good Shakespeare play, this one's full of bawdy comedy and people acting the fool. Plus, our version's set in the early nineties in Northern Ireland, which means we've also got grunge, flannel, and the Cranberries (and even an under eighty minute runtime).
