The Return of Ulysses

Keeping the faith
How do you think you would feel if your partner went away for 20 years? Do you think you would be faithful? Or would the temptation to start a new life be too much?

Waiting game
It's been two decades since Penelope's husband, Ulysses, left to fight in the Trojan Wars and the intervening years have seen a string of lusty, power-hungry suitors knocking on her door. Will the love she has for her husband stand the test of time?

Humour, wit and the down right weird
Christian Spuck's exhilarating production fills Penelope's loneliest years with humour, wit and the down right weird - Poseidon wears flippers, goggles and a giant tutu while the goddess Athena becomes a tour guide equipped with a megaphone. And as the music of Purcell blends effortlessly into Doris Day, tightly choreographed corps-de-ballet becomes revue-style dancing.

'Spuck's fascinating combinations are dazzlingly fast, combining classical fireworks and some of the most original choreography' Financial Times
