The Peloponnesian War drags on and on with no end in sight, and the tough-minded Lysistrata has had enough. Men! - always making stupid decisions that affect everyone. Women's opinions are never listened to. Taking matters into her own hands, Lysistrata convenes a meeting of women from warring city-states across Greece and calls for a sex strike. It's a hard sell, but in the end, it is agreed: They will withhold sex until the war is brought to hasty a close.

Dies ist eine vollständige Lesung der antiken Komödie – wörtlich, mit Witz und satirischer Schärfe vorgetragen. Aristophanes schöpft aus urkomischer Fantasie, indem er zwei Männer zeigt, die mit Vögeln eine eigene Stadt bauen – und so der menschlichen Macht ihre absurden Grenzen aufzeigt. "Die Vögel" entwirft eine utopische Vogelstadt als subversives Gegenmodell zu menschlicher Gier, Politik und Machtwahn – ein lebhaftes, zeitloses Spiel mit Freiheit und Gesellschaftskritik.

In this sharp and satirical tale, Strepsiades, an Athenian overwhelmed by debt from a poor marriage and a reckless son, seeks out the infamous Socrates at the Thinking Shop to learn the art of clever rhetoric.
