Hero Theatre presents the world premiere of Troy by Amina Henry.

Troy, a musical riff on The Trojan Women, chronicles the story of a single-mother struggling to save her family from homelessness amidst rent-increases in her neighborhood. Set in a fictional city, Troy is inspired by true stories of homeless families in Los Angeles. It includes original songs by T.J. Keanu Tario and is directed by Elisa Bocanegra.

Troy previews on November 7th and runs November 8th-10th and 15th-17th at the Rosenthal Theater at Inner City Arts.

Featuring: Ryan Hardge, Jack Landrón, Mildred Marie Langford, Carene Rose Mekertichyan, Adam Mendez Jr., Shakira Reedus, Larrieux Ross, DeForrest Taylor

There is much to enjoy in Amina Henry’s play. The language is raw and believable. The resemblance to The Trojan Woman by Euripides is poverty.

I encourage you to attend. The cost of your ticket will translate into a brand new experience for multiple groups of homeless women in Los Angeles. Plus you’ll have fun while doing some good.
