Dustpan Odyssey

Synopsis:
the great puppet master, Philippe Genty, invites us to join Ulysses and his shipmates for an incredible journey. Our hero is a corkscrew and sails on his indestructible vessel, which is nothing, but a . . . dustpan! This imagination without boundaries joyfully carries away kids and grown-ups in this object theatre adaptation of Homer's Odyssey. the wittiness of the text that bounces on words in an exquisite absurdity meets the virtuosity in object and puppet manipulation. Heading to Ithaca! Genty's art can tug at the heart and refresh the spirit. Seeing is indeed believing (Australian).
