Lillian Groag presents a new version of Troilus and Cressida that will resonate with contemporary audiences.\nOne of the most obscure plays in Shakespeare\u2019s canon, Troilus and Cressida may also be the Bard\u2019s darkest comedy. Exploring some of the events of Homer\u2019s Iliad, the play juxtaposes the carnage of the Trojan War with a love story between its two titular characters. Lillian Groag\u2019s translation brings this ancient world to modern audiences.
