Synopsis: | Homer's Iliad is a 2700-year-old text originally created for performance that tells the story of the rage of Achilles, the cost of war, and his personal search for honor and meaning. Aquila Theatre brings this seminal work to vivid life in a production that seeks to restore the Iliad to its original home-the realm of the performer. Stanley Lombardo's striking American translation conveys the muscularity and sheer force of the ancient Greek while Anthony Cochrane's original score and Peter Meineck's direction pull the audience deep into this great epic work. Set in World War II, Aquila's production is inspired by the cover of Stanley Lombardo's translation, which is a photograph of the D-Day landings, entitled, Into the Jaws of Death | |||||
