The Secret of Delphi

In 468 B.C.E in Athens, the young Sophocles entered the theater competition at the City Dionysia against the established favorite, Aeschylus. The kidnapping of the lead actor of Sophocles’ company inspires his two young daughters to defy the normal conventions that prescribed the behavior of girls and to take a leading part in attempting to save their father and to restore fair play to the competition.
