Athens and Sparta are at war, and the women decide they must put a stop to it. The answer? They must go on sex strike! (And also occupy the Athenian treasury thereby stopping Athens from buying more weapons.) A comedic imagining by Aristophanes of women doing politics, something inconceivable to the men of the play, Lysistrata is a wonderful and nuanced depiction of proto-feminism, filled to the brim with hilarious confrontations and interactions.
