In Park Square Theatre's world premiere commission of THE ODYSSEY, Minneapolis Playwright William Randall Beard re-imagines Homer's epic not just as Odysseus' adventure, but as a family saga. Legendary warrior Odysseus (J.C. Cutler) battles beasts, tides and his own arrogance - often with no weapon except his passion. His wife, Penelope (Jodi Kellogg), fights the urge to give up on the world and his teenage son Telemachus (Sasha Andreev) wrestles with his transition to adulthood. Reunited, they discover they can claim new lives, despite the sometimes wicked blows of the gods. The production closes at Park Square Theatre, 20 W. Seventh Place, Saint Paul, on February 6.
