A little piece for her sister, by Jane Montgomery Griffiths, re-imagines the stories of Helen of Troy and her sister Clytemnestra. Jane juxtaposes everyday domesticity with mythic excesses to thrilling effect. Perceptive, precise, and beautifully structured.

Jane has been invited to participate in PlayWriting Australia’s 2012 National Script Workshop.  This is a prestigious award for playwrights, and the Playwriting Australia invitation is a very coveted additional prize, giving her the chance to disseminate her research at a national level with industry professionals.
