Ransacking Troy

NOTICE: Due to a sudden and tragic loss within our theater family, our upcoming performances of Ransacking Troy, originally scheduled to open Friday, September 11, have been cancelled. Thank you for your warm support of Peppermint Creek Theatre and for standing with our community during this difficult period.

Step into the ancient past to confront the striking parallels of our present in Erin Shields’ Ransacking Troy, a visceral reimagining of the Trojan War told through the eyes of the women typically silenced by history. This isn’t the myth you remember; it is a sharp, modern interrogation of the collateral damage caused by ego and the cyclical nature of systemic violence.

This production transforms a classic epic into a catalyst for dialogue about power, gender, and the human cost of conflict. Patrons will find themselves captivated by a narrative that is as breathtakingly theatrical as it is socially urgent. By amplifying these sidelined voices, the play challenges us to look closely at our own society and the stories we choose to tell. Prepare for an evening of theatre that entertains with its wit while demanding we acknowledge the “vital issues” woven into our global heritage.

This production generously underwritten by Jim & Rose Zacks and Lynn & Tom Bartley.
