Andromeda (Ancient Greek: Ἀνδρομέδη Andromédē) is a lost tragedy written by Euripides based on the myth of Andromeda and first produced in 412 BC in a trilogy that also included Euripides’ Helen. Andromeda may have been the first depiction on stage of a young man falling in love with a woman. The play has been lost; however a number of fragments are extant. In addition a number of ancient sources refer to the play including several references in plays by Aristophanes.
