The Iliad
Curio Theatre
Saturday, January 19, 8 p.m., Kennett High School (Driving Directions)

Homer’s epic poem is brought to the stage in this remarkable adaptation by Jared Reed, loosely based on a translation by Ian Johnston. Two actors share the swift-paced narration, playing gods, goddesses, men and women, to bring the spirit of the Trojan War to life. Accompanying their words with traditional hand drums and stringed instruments, this presentation is designed to recreate the original bardic performances of old. This unforgettable production is a tale of Greek and Trojan love and hate, jealousy and forgiveness, tears and laughter.
