Theatre Y presents, "Penelope, O Penelope" at St. Luke's
PENELOPE, O PENELOPE is a modern chamber tragicomedy inspired by Homer's Odyssey. In this new translation by Artistic Director Melissa Lorraine, Dinah awaits her husband's return from war after twenty years, with a vengeful suitor hungry at her door. Elias—the war-riddled, hero-turned-vagabond—searches for redemption from his bloodshed and a way home from spirits and memories alike. The production employs shadow, dance, language and architecture to ask how long love lasts...and at what cost.
