Set against the backdrop of the Peloponnesian War, the narrative revolves around Lysistrata, who leads the women of Greece in a bold strike against their husbands, refusing intimacy until peace is achieved. This comedy highlights the women's frustrations with being sidelined in political matters, showcasing their rationality in a patriarchal society. The play's ironic twist reveals the men's greater annoyance with their wives than their wartime foes. Celebrated for its themes of gender dynamics and peace, it remains a staple of classical theater.
