He's furious. Some say his hate is the only thing still keeping him alive. The Trojan War. You've heard of Achilles and Odysseus, but have you heard of Philoctetes? Probably not, because although Philoctetes signed up to go and fight, he never made it: his shipmates abandoned him on an island on the way. And why? Because he had a disgustingly, terribly, disturbingly smelly foot. Fast-forward ten years and Odysseus needs something Philoctetes has... will Philoctetes forgive and forget, and help the Greek armies win the Trojan war? Or will his need for vengeance overcome him? Age 7+ Based on Philoctetes, by Sophocles
