Robin Shannon, host of Fordham Conversations, sat down with members of the Trojan Women Project, an initiative that sends artists from countries that have experienced a history of conflict, such as Guatemala, Cambodia, and Kosovo, to collaborate artistically in their home countries and with actors in New York. The artists come together from varying countries to participate in a revival of the play, "The Trojan Women," put on by the Experimental Theatre Club La MaMa. Shannon sat down with Onni Johnson, artistic director of the Trojan Women Project, Daniela Markaj, an actress in the project and George Drance, Fordham University Lincoln Center Artist-in-Residence, to discuss their work.
