In this episode we provide a close look at the ancient tragedy *Hecuba*, drawn from the mythical storyworld, in which the queen of Troy watches her daughter volunteer to be sacrificed to Achilles' ghost and finds her last son's corpse wash up on the shore. After a brief exposition of the plot and background, we interview the director and leading actor in the production performed at the University of New Hampshire April 24–25 and May 1–2.
