Tragic Trojans

Sorry, but this episode is not about torn condoms.

Just came from watching “Trojan Women” at the CCP. The story is about those hapless women after their country was defeated—you know, Helen of Troy and all that. Unfortunately the play is minus the Brad Pitts and Eric Banas of this world. Instead it is almost two hours of non-stop (as in no intermission whatsoever) wailing and moaning in full Greek tragedy mode. Hinagpis extreme. Daing to the max.

If you’re depressed or suicidal, do not watch “Trojan Women.” It’s a play to slash your wrists by.
