Description

When we last left our shipmates - seekers of shadows in the House of Death, they had spilled the red blood of the black ewe and allowed the dead to approach and drink. Each shade who tasted the fresh, hot blood spoke to Odysseus...his mother, the great hero Achilles, and of course the blind seer Tiresias whose prophecy stretched far into Odysseus’ future, speaking of the many trials he would still suffer before reaching his sweet homeland; how upon reaching those longed for shores of Ithaka, he must know and be prepared for further treachery awaiting him in those hallowed halls. The crew left the gray banks of the underworld, cheering themselves onwards with a song of their conquests. Where will they find themselves next?

Welcome aboard The Odyssey Audio Drama! We Players originally performed The Odyssey in late 2011, voyaging with our audiences in the waters of San Francisco Bay aboard the historic scow schooner Alma. We sailed past the sirens, we anchored off Angel Island, we feasted on cheese and olives and bread aboard the ship, we sang sea chanteys, and we awakened the muse of these ancient tales!Here on our virtual ocean, imagine that salt spray and sea breeze, the splash of the waves against the wooden hull and the creaks and groans of the rigging.The voyage begins again.
