Cass is gifted with knowing the truth of the future, but cursed that no one will ever believe her. Can she change her tragic fate, or is it futile to even try? HUMBLE MATERIALS presents a modern re-telling of Cassandra's mythology and Euripides' TROJAN WOMEN, and asks us to consider the soothsayer's role in contemporary culture. What lengths would we go to to change our stories?
Humble Materials proudly partners with WOAR Philadelphia Center Against Sexual Violence to present this project. For more information about Pennsylvania's oldest rape crisis center, visit www.WOAR.org
