A Modern Take on an Ancient Tale

Set sail with this day out at the theater, and be one of the first audiences to see this modern adaptation of “The Odyssey” at the American Repertory Theater (the A.R.T.).
Tour Details
We’ll see a morning matinee performance of “The Odyssey” at the A.R.T., then enjoy lunch with a side of post-theater discussion.
 
Trust us: You’ll want time to talk about this reimagined version of Homer’s epic story.
 
“Acclaimed writer and adaptor Kate Hamill (Sense & Sensibility, Vanity Fair, Dracula) turns a contemporary lens on Homer’s Odyssey in this new play that reimagines the stories of both Odysseus and his wife, Penelope, and asks how we can learn to embrace healing and forgiveness in order to end cycles of violence and revenge.”
 
Hamill’s version sheds light on the timeless takeaways this story has to offer, using contemporary language, and infusing a present-day perspective on the impact of war. This Odyssey is a must-see.
