The face that launched a thousand ships finally gets to speak.

Meet Helen, before Troy, in this feminist retelling of the Ancient Greek epic. Witness her divine beginnings (yes, she did hatch from an egg!), her youth as a Spartan warrior, her fateful decision to leave her husband, and finally the decade of brutal war and destruction that follows.

That Witch Helen blends myth, movement, and storytelling to give Helen of Troy, one of history’s most hated women, a chance to tell her own story.

After its sell-out debut at Brighton Fringe 2024, this "MUST SEE SHOW" (FringeReview) returns in a new solo show version.

Written and performed by Catie Ridewood.
