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 of this ultimate Greek epic is full of monsters and gods, interweaving music and modern dialogue with Alexander Pope's poetical translation. Classic yet accessible, this musical adaptation touches on many universal themes. It is an introduction to this epic tale designed to be enjoyed by all the family and, we hope, spark a curiosity in the original!
Run time: 1 hour 20 minutes (excluding interval)
Curtain up: 6pm
Doors open: 5:30pm
Location: Kingsettle Stud, Cholderton Estate, Hampshire, SP4 0DX
