Odyssey


Co-written with John Bolton, 'Odyssey' weaves the story of Andreas Litras' migrant family through the legend of Odysseus, hero of the classic text - Homer's Odyssey. Using Odysseus' long journey home to counterpoint the modern migrant experience 'Odyssey' explores narratives of dislocation and identity. Journeys and characters cross paths as the performance moves between past and present, Greece and Australia, memory and imagination. 'Odyssey' is a celebration of what it means to find home.
