Penelope has ruled Ithaca for 20 years. The evening before she must choose a new husband a stranger arrives at the palace. He says he has news of Odysseus. If her husband is not dead then where has he been, why does he now return and what remains of their relationship?
It would take divine intervention for this reunion to go well … luckily, the Goddess Athena is patron to them both.
Returning after its successful 2023 tour, our adaptation is full of monsters and gods, interweaving music and modern dialogue with Alexander Pope's poetical translation of this Ancient Greek epic.
Classic yet accessible, this 10 instrument(!!) adaptation touches on many of the universal themes, in particular loss, identity, like-mindedness and homecoming. This is an introduction to this epic tale designed to be enjoyed by all the family and, we hope, spark a curiosity in the original!
