Our Ajax moves Sophocles into the era of Desert Storm, converting an ambiguous classical protagonist into a British Lieutenant-Colonel suffering from manic depression. Torn between army politics and the love of his soldiers on the front line of war, the legendary Ajax begins to spiral out of control. Developed from interviews with current and former servicemen and women
