As a guest gift for the wonderful wine, I will eat you last, yawns Polyphemus the Cyclops, in Joanne Keegan's wonderous, phantasmagoric comedy based on Homer's epic poem, the Odyssey.
Laying down a comedic play for school-age students on a classical substrate may seem ambitious for some, but for others, it is an opportunity to expand the imagination.
The result is more than just a clever piece of drama--it is an inspired work of art in its own right, a wild ride to open up students' dramatic talents and expose them to an age-old classic.
The Odyssey provides age-appropriate and accessible material, parts for over twenty students, and strong roles for both male and female actors, all while retaining the flavor of Homer's classic in the context of an original and imaginative play, with adventure, humor, and, of course, a cast of colorful characters!
