In Athens, crowds flock to witness the most shocking trial of the ancient world, which is about to shake the city to its very foundations . . .
A scandalous accusation has ruptured the royal family in Athens.
On the one side: Theseus - king, hero, liberator of the people and slayer of the Minotaur - and his stepson, the pious Hippolytus.
On the other, Phaedra - queen of Athens, princess of Crete, daughter of an adulteress and sister of a monster.
The men of Athens are gathering to determine the truth. But the women know truth is a slippery thing. There are two sides to every story, and theirs has gone unheard.
