Illiad
Synopsis:
Are we doomed to our worst impulses and an endless cycle of violence?
Can the mistakes of the past ever be escaped or are they eternally bound to repeat?
The line between ancient and modern blurs in this ode about, most of all, storytelling and Theatre.
Helen, Agamemmon, Achiles, Hector, Patrochlus, Priam.
A 3000 year old myth told and re-told, the tale of the Trojan war, which may or may not be true.
A storyteller, an audience around the fire – our humanity on display, a mirror held up to nature.
Sisyphus enters the stage.
