Daughters of Leda
By Madeline Sayet
Directed by Shannon R. Davis

As the seasons change and Persephone returns to the underworld, a mortal girl arrives at the same time asking questions that turn history upside down. The Fates have a game up their sleeves—they are tired, they need a vacation. But in order to leave, they have to return the stories they exploited.

In a whirlwind of events, Adam and Eve, Leda (and the Swan), Helen, Clytemnestra, Iphigenia, and Electra all come together to choose their own destinies and finally tell their side of the stories that have instilled fear of feminine knowledge for far too long.
