The Athens University basketball team hasn’t won a game in thirty years. But when spunky transfer student Lysistrata Jones dares the squad’s fed-up girlfriends to stop “giving it up” to their boyfriends until they win a game, the team's legendary losing streak could finally come to an end.

With its modern take on the Aristophanes classic, Lysistrata Jones brings a contemporary pop/rock energy to Douglas Carter Beane's hilarious script. 

Premiere Production: After a highly acclaimed Greenwich Village production by the Transport Group Theater Company, Lysistrata Jones opened on Broadway at the Walter Kerr Theatre on December 14, 2011, starring Patti Murin in the title role.
