About the Production:
Atalanta was born to run — but she barely had a chance to live! Cursed and left to die, she is adopted by protective bears and raised with fierce athleticism. When she reintegrates into the Greek world, she discovers that men dominate in athletics. Searching for her place, she proves herself strong, despite many challenges - and a war! She is surrounded by Kings, gods, a terrifying pig, and impressive athletes from this ancient Greek legend. By the end, Atalanta finds confidence, love, and friendship.

About the Production:
After 10 long years of battle, Troy has fallen, and the Greeks are finally returning home. Penelope waits for her husband Odysseus to return home, but Poseidon, God of the Sea, veers Odysseus and his soldiers far off course. For 10 more years, he must sail the world, battle great monsters, and brave the River Styx. Meanwhile, at home, Penelope must fight battles of her own against greedy suitors who wish to steal the throne. Based on Homer's epic poem, The Odyssey is an adventure about community, overcoming fate, and finding honor in humility.

About the Production:
Ten years of battle at the walls of Troy end with the disappearance of the Greek armies and the appearance of a gift, a wooden horse, pregnant with soldiers. The Trojans invite their destruction behind their impenetrable wall. In the aftermath of the ensuing bloodbath, Queen Hecuba struggles to save the last remnants of Troy - her surviving family members, her dignity, and the remaining Trojan women - from the conquering Greeks.
