Achilles (Iliad)
Duration: about 65 minutes
The title itself should act as a trumpet call to both director and audience. All Homer’s virtues are on display in this hour-long play, which presents the key moments in the final stages of the “Wrath of Peleus’ son”. It includes contrasting scenes with Thetis and Briseis, Patroclus and Hector, and culminates in the sublime encounter with King Priam.
