WORLD renowned Bruce Company returns to The Point next week with a breathtaking stage production of Homer’s epic poem The Odyssey.
The King, Odysseus, separated from family for ten years of brutal war, faces another ten year struggle returning home as a reckless God drags him on a journey across oceans to strange lands and the darkness beyond. Immortal beauties, shape shifters and monsters guide and torment the king as he hurtles towards a savage and desperate reunion with his Queen.
This epic contemporary re-working, spun from an ancient myth, contains universal themes, told here through a dance-theatre and horror and fantasy fusion, alongside a macabre humour that makes this a rounded show perfect for everyone aged 14 and up. Mark Bruce explores how we face our mortality and the Gods inside us.
See Odyssey on Wednesday and Thursday.
