An Iliad
  • 7:30pm-9:30pm cdt
  • Tag(s): Theater adapted from Homer by Lisa Peterson and Denis O'Hare translation by Robert Fagles directed by Benjamin McGovern Seating in the Dowling Studio is general admission and begins 30 minutes before curtain. Every time I sing this song, I hope it's the last time." So says The Poet as he digs deep to sing Homer's epic story of war, honor, violence and the Greek siege of the city of Troy. He's told this story for centuries, conjuring the heroes and battles for different cultures and eras. Now in the shadow of war in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria, he unleashes the story's power for a modern audience. As The Poet recites, comments and chats, he compels his audience to connect with his story, to feel what he feels, to believe in the importance of this story. Maybe if he tells the story one more time, the violence will end. An Iliad premiered in 2010 and has been lauded by critics across the country, including The New York Times this spring: "Mr. O'Hare and Ms. Peterson have telescoped the mighty expanses of Homer's great poem into an evening that scales the conflict of the Trojan War down to an intimate solo show illuminating both the heroism and the horror of warfare." Guthrie regular Stephen Yoakam (The Burial at Thebes, The Winter's Tale ) will portray The Poet under the direction of Benjamin McGovern.

The exhibit is supported by a grant from the St. Anthony Falls Heritage Board.

  • Tag(s): Theater adapted from Homer by Lisa Peterson and Denis O'Hare translation by Robert Fagles directed by Benjamin McGovern Seating in the Dowling Studio is general admission and begins 30 minutes before curtain. Every time I sing this song, I hope it's the last time." So says The Poet as he digs deep to sing Homer's epic story of war, honor, violence and the Greek siege of the city of Troy. He's told this story for centuries, conjuring the heroes and battles for different cultures and eras. Now in the shadow of war in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria, he unleashes the story's power for a modern audience. As The Poet recites, comments and chats, he compels his audience to connect with his story, to feel what he feels, to believe in the importance of this story. Maybe if he tells the story one more time, the violence will end. An Iliad premiered in 2010 and has been lauded by critics across the country, including The New York Times this spring: "Mr. O'Hare and Ms. Peterson have telescoped the mighty expanses of Homer's great poem into an evening that scales the conflict of the Trojan War down to an intimate solo show illuminating both the heroism and the horror of warfare." Guthrie regular Stephen Yoakam (The Burial at Thebes, The Winter's Tale ) will portray The Poet under the direction of Benjamin McGovern.

Every time I sing this song, I hope it's the last time." So says The Poet as he digs deep to sing Homer's epic story of war, honor, violence and the Greek siege of the city of Troy. He's told this story for centuries, conjuring the heroes and battles for different cultures and eras. Now in the shadow of war in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria, he unleashes the story's power for a modern audience. As The Poet recites, comments and chats, he compels his audience to connect with his story, to feel what he feels, to believe in the importance of this story. Maybe if he tells the story one more time, the violence will end. An Iliad premiered in 2010 and has been lauded by critics across the country, including The New York Times this spring: "Mr. O'Hare and Ms. Peterson have telescoped the mighty expanses of Homer's great poem into an evening that scales the conflict of the Trojan War down to an intimate solo show illuminating both the heroism and the horror of warfare." Guthrie regular Stephen Yoakam (The Burial at Thebes, The Winter's Tale ) will portray The Poet under the direction of Benjamin McGovern.
