About the show:
After being slighted by his commanding officers, Greek warrior Ajax determines to make the men he's fought so long to pay the ultimate price. However, when his violent plan goes awry, the Trojan War hero and his family must grapple with a horrifying future. Juxtaposing classic text with found language and songs from American military history, words a god had taught him stages the vengeful actions of a grieving soldier to examine our complicity in imperial occupation and its inevitable blowback.
