Details

Two of Britain's finest storytellers bring a mighty Homeric classic to the stage, with a cast of characters who have fascinated audiences for three thousand years: the haughty king Agamemnon; Achilles, the archetypal flawed hero; Helen, cursed by her beauty, and towering over them all, the omnipotent Olympian Gods and Goddesses, Zeus and Owl Eyed Athena. The story of the siege and fall of Troy is as contemporary now as it has ever been. This extraordinary account of a testosterone-charged war, with its savagery and mad ecstasy, explores questions of nationalism, grief, divine indifference, and the destructive and redemptive faces of love. Suitable for ages 12+ The Crick Crack Club - The Iliad website.
