About this listen

In a bold and humorous stand against the relentless Peloponnesian War, the women of Athens take matters into their own hands. Frustrated by the ongoing conflict that has brought suffering to their lives, they hatch a daring plan to withhold sex from their husbands until peace is restored. Will their audacious strategy succeed? Tune in to discover the outcome of this timeless comedy by Aristophanes, first performed in 411 BC.
