Iliad, The Odyssey And All Of Greek Mythology In 99 Minutes Or Less, The

John Hunter
On a simple stage, with the clock ticking in front of everyone's eyes, the cast speeds through all of Greek Mythology. Its funny, updated and made easy to understand. The Gods walk the Red Carpet. The Creation of Mankind is a botched subcontractors job. Man and Pandora try settling down despite an ominous wedding gift. Love stories are a dating show and the Greek Tragedies are sports highlights! and don't forget the two greatest stories ever told, The Iliad and The Odyssey. Kidnap Helen of Troy and you've got a 10 year slap-fight of epic proportions with pouty achilles, war-hungry agamemnon and clever Odysseus, destined to wander the seas for 10 more years fighting giants, seductresses and the Gods themselves. all the silly decisions, the absurd destinies, and the goofy characters are presented lightning-bolt fast with hysterical results as the clock is stopped with only seconds to spare.

time out, the

Synopsis:
You are told that in nine minutes and 39 seconds, you will be facing something huge - something you might not normally do, alongside people you may never have met. What will you need to know about the people in this room to feel ready to take on the task together? the time out is a playful and personal interactive performance set in the changing room of a swimming pool before a water polo final. You entered as strangers, but will you leave as a team?

Would Like To Meet

Synopsis:
Would Like To Meet is an intimate, individual journey in which participants explore a series of environments in the Barbican Centre led by a voice heard through a pair of headphones. allow yourself to follow the voice and a story gradually unfolds as each scenario is shaped both by you and other audience members. at times, you may be asked to play a part, or just be asked to sit and listen. Would Like To Meet is an exciting participatory performance that puts the audience at the heart of the action and asks the question: can you miss someone you've never met? The answer is yours to find.
