Most of us will have a vague idea of what the Trojan War was, but how did it all start? Our mythical-hero-turned-narrator, Achilles, helps to tell the musical (and unusually fruity) story of how the exclusion of his goddess aunt from his parents’ wedding eventually led to his own tragic fate as told in Homer’s “The Iliad”. 4m, 4f, 3 of any gender. Doubling to reduce cast size is possible.
