It’s 3am, and Trojan princess and priestess Cassandra (Elizabeth Blackmore) is wide awake. Troy: Tom Wright & Ian MichaelAs written by Australian playwright Tom Wright and energetically directed by Noongar creative genius Ian Michael, Troy is a mirror of our doom. Of an age when land is valued more than lives and slaughter occurs daily with nary a care from our so-called leaders. Troy: refusing to do what’s expectedMuch like Cassandra, Troy is exhilarating precisely because it refuses to do as we’ve been told. Troy is at Malthouse Theatre, Melbourne, until 21 September 2025.
