'Women in Power' tells the story of a group of women tired, (just like their author) of the incompetent politicians in the demos. Convinced they could do a much better job than their male counterparts, they inveigle themselves into the council and, with their leader Praxagora at the helm, succeed in signing over working powers from the men to the women, powers they use to institute a proto-socialist state. A suitable companion piece to the slightly lest chaste 'Lysistrata', 'Women in Power' is as cynical about the status quo as it is romantic about the possibility for change.
