A companion piece to The Odyssey told from the perspective of Odysseuss wife, Penelope. Welcome to Ithaca. Island paradise and home to Penelope. She's married to a world famous war hero and she's had enough of waiting for him all alone at home. Made with input from soldiers and military spouses, Penelope Retold is an irreverent collision of classic myth and contemporary rage. Get ready for a theatrical storm that sweeps through poetry, songs, comedy and YouTube clips towards a poignant and furious conclusion.
