CSE Students Rehearse Euripides’ Tragic Play Before Opening Performance, April 23



On Monday, April 21, College of Saint Elizabeth (CSE) Women’s College students gathered together for a final dress rehearsal of this year’s production of Euripides’ The Trojan Women.

 

Garbed in Greek robes and sandals, the students practiced their lines amongst the ruins of Troy – its columns strewn across the stage of the College’s Greek Theatre.
