By: Hudson Players Club The play is bursting with broad verbal and physical humour, sure to delight those looking for the Stephen Colbert of ancient Greece. With a spare and simple presentation, the hilarity of Aristophanes’ Dudley Fitts’ translation is a feast of puns, innuendo and lyrical language that retains the biting political satire that was intended when the play first appeared more than 2000 years ago. The HPC retelling of this battle of the sexes pays homage to classical Greek style while updating the performance to speak to audiences shocked and awed by what they see nightly on the news. This is the 66th main stage production of the Hudson Players Club, the longest continually operating theatre company in Quebec. Lysistrata is directed by the acclaimed and respected actor, Don Anderson and features many favourites from past HPC productions including Diana Gausden, David Fisher, Steven Walters, Tali Brady and Amanda MacDonald.
