"Lysistrata" would it be great if that play came to a theatre near you in this day and age.

I do not see "Lysistrata" as being germane to our present cultural norms.

Lysistrata, is as far as I know the earliest example of coercive control and the use of sex to control.

Just now there is a movement known as 4B that I beleive mirrors very much on Lysistrata tactics.

Besides all that, it is perhaps an interesting intellectual exercise.
