The Trojan Women by Euripides, translated by Ian Johnston, presented by The Online Stage.

Euripides's play follows the fates of the women of Troy after their city has been sacked, their husbands killed, and their remaining families taken away as slaves. It serves as an anti-war narrative as it highlights the suffering of the women left behind. The tragedy also calls attention to how women were treated as commodities in the past by showing how they were divided among the remaining men as spoils of war.

this is my favorite Euripides play and it's reasonably well translated and performed. I wish some of the actors' voices were more differentiated to help keep characters clear, but nevertheless I'm glad this recording is here

The pacing made it easy to follow and enjoy. The use of actors for all the parts sets this far ahead of so many other audios. The translation used Ian Johnston; an excellent choice.
