Walking Shadow Theatre
Amazons and Their Men

by Jordan Harrison
 
October 17 - November 1, 2008
Pillsbury House Theatre

The Frau used to direct beautiful films for a fascist government...

Now she's trying to make a film that's simply beautiful - the epic story of an Amazon queen who falls in love with Achilles on the Trojan battlefield. But when telegrams start to arrive from the Minister of Propaganda, The Frau can no longer ignore the real war outside her sound stage. A darkly comic look at the role of artists during wartime, inspired by the life and work of Leni Riefenstahl.
