Socrates as a Woman, and Other Twists on the Ancients

New York Times: "But beginning tomorrow, the Target Margin Theater company will make Socrates not only the lead character in a play, but also its co-author, with an adaptation of Plato’s “Symposium” retitled “Dinner Party.” If that is not a sufficiently unlikely theatrical combination, the adaptation will run in tandem with Aristotle’s “Poetics,” here called “The Argument,” by David Greenspan, the actor and director."
