肉肉传媒

DalTheatre presents The Odyssey

With guest director Ken Schwartz at the helm, The Odyssey brings 肉肉传媒 Acting, Composition, Costume Studies, Music, Technical Theatre, and Set Design students together to stage a propulsive, action-packed epic that builds to a thrilling conclusion. And it鈥檚 funny.

Rick Chafe's award-winning Canadian adaptation of Homer鈥檚 poem The Odyssey braids three incredible stories, told simultaneously, into one seamless thread. The story of Odysseus' voyage home from Troy, the tale聽of Penelope鈥檚 struggle to hold on to a kingdom in the face of vengeful suitors and, at the centre, the story of a family reconciling amidst the backdrop of a civil war. Each one builds on the momentum created by the others until all three unite in an incredibly satisfying way.
