Troilus and Cressida: Prenzie Players Next Production Releases Dates!!

Directed by Maggie Woolley

Troilus and Cressida will be presented at a new and exciting location on the Illinois side of the river this spring! Check back soon for further information.

In the seventh year of the Trojan war, Troilus, a prince of Troy, loves Cressida, daughter to a traitor. Troilus seeks to woo Cressida through her Uncle, Pandarus, though Cressida secretly loves Troilus as well. Meanwhile, The Greeks encamped outside the walls of Troy are suffering from dissension among the ranks, and cannot move forward in their goal to seize Troy until order is returned. A tale of love, war, and betrayal, Troilus and Cressida is one of Shakespeare's most controversial plays, whipping between bawdy comedy and gritty tragedy in a dark exploration of the classic heroes of the Iliad.
