This groundbreaking production, written by Will Power, conceived by Carl Cofield and Will Power, directed by Carl Cofield and choreographed by Tiffany Rea-Fisher, reclaims the powerful story of Ethiopia’s legendary warrior-king, a long-overlooked figure of the Trojan War. With a cast of acclaimed actors and stunning stagecraft, Memnon is a must-see theatrical event that continues CTH’s tradition of reimagining the classics through a contemporary lens.
