Clever, gorgeous, and superbly acted! Hamill’s crafted something special, and I’m changed.
WBUR
Acclaimed writer and adaptor Kate Hamill (Sense & Sensibility, Vanity Fair, Dracula) turns a contemporary lens on Homer’s Odyssey in this new play that reimagines the stories of both Odysseus and his wife, Penelope, and asks how we can learn to embrace healing and forgiveness in order to end cycles of violence and revenge.
This production contains sex, violence (including death of children and animals), and references to sexual assault, as well as fog, haze, strobe, and flashing lights. Recommended for ages 14+.
