The Iliad
By Chris Hannan
Directed by Lyceum Artistic Director Mark Thomson
20 April – 14 May 2016
The Gods of Olympus take their sides and the fates of all men hang in the balance.
Homer’s Iliad, the greatest and most influential epic poem ever written, tells of the tragic and bloody climax to the ten-year siege of Troy; the darkest episode in the Trojan War.
This great tale of gods and heroes, love, jealousy and revenge is brought to visceral life in a brand new adaptation by award winning Scottish Playwright Chris Hannan (Crime and Punishment, Elizabeth Gordon Quinn, Shining Souls).
