The Show
Nine years after the end of the Trojan War the King, Odysseus, has still not returned home.

In his absence, his house has been besieged by suitors who are after his crown, wife and lands.

Away for 20 years, rumours of his death abound.

Why isn?t he back? When will he be home? And will Penelope be able to keep the wolves at bay? These questions are in the hands of the Gods.

The show is an interpretive live performance based on Homers' The Odyssey, using hand-drawn paper puppets that are brought to life through live cinema.

The action is performed to originally scored music, performed and written by The Paper Cinema musicians.
