A reading of "An Iliad" by Lisa Peterson and Denis O'Hare
Fri May 26, 2023 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM EDT
Sea Dog Theater, 10003
Description
Join us for AN ILIAD, a modern-day retelling of Homer’s classic. Poetry and humor, the ancient tale of the Trojan War and the modern world collide in this captivating theatrical experience. The setting is simple: the empty theater. The time is now: the present moment. The lone figure onstage is a storyteller—possibly Homer, possibly one of the many bards who followed in his footsteps. He is fated to tell this story throughout history.
Directed by Brandt Adams
Featuring Vernice Miller as The Poet
Music by Composer Kamel Boutros
And ASL interpretation by Lisa Dennett
