Description:

In this adaptation of Homer's epic, one man wrestles with the costs, ancient and modern, of man's addiction to rage and war. He embodies the great warrior Achilles - his anger with King Agamemnon, his love and grief for his friend Patroclus, and finally his atonement with King Priam - and all the other characters. Alone on stage, his fate is to retell this deathless story as long as wars are waged.

“AN ILIAD is pure theater," raved Time Out: "shocking, glorious, primal and deeply satisfying.”
