The Athens University basketball team hasn't won a game in 30 years. But when spunky transfer student Lysistrata Jones (Patti Murrin) dares the squad's fed-up girlfriends to stop 'giving it up' to their boyfriends until they win a game, their legendary losing streak could be coming to an end.
In this boisterous new musical comedy, Lyssie J. and her girl-power posse give Aristophanes' classic comedy a sexy, modern twist and take student activism to a whole new level.
On Thursday, October 13, NBA hall of famer Chris Mullin coaches basketball camp for the cast of Lysistrata Jones to sharpen their skills before hitting the stage. Director/Choreographer Dan Knechtges will be on hand to ensure they are Broadway ready!
Lysistrata Jones is written by Tony nominated bookwriter Douglas Carter Beane (Sister Act, Xanadu, The Little Dog Laughed) and composer/lyricist Lewis Flinn (The Divine Sister), and is directed and choreographed by Tony nominee Dan Knechtges (Xanadu, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee).
Tickets for Lysistrata Jones range from $25 to $127.50, and can be purchased on www.Telecharge.com or by calling (800) 432-7250. For more information, visit www.LysistrataJones.com.
