The OAS Theater Group presents “Lysistrata" A comedy from ancient Greece By: Aristphanes 411 B.C. By: Lucrecia Basualdo In Spanish with English subtitles Back by popular demand ONLY SHOW MAY 5TH     During the Peloponessian war, Greece was divided and men fighting these battles were rarely home. Lysistrata (whose name means “the Pacific”) was an Athenian leader seeking peace between Sparta and Athens. She will use her feminine charms so men will end war and come back home with their families.     The innovative element about this play is that the main resource Lysistrata will use to accomplish her goal will be a sex strike until a peace agreement is signed. She will be joined in this effort by every woman in Greece.      It is an unparalleled comedy with a peace message to promote the fight to eradicate domestic violence. Help us to promote world peace! •      Lysistrata will be presented in Spanish with English subtitles. The only show is on May 5th, 2015 at 8:00 pm.
