20 - 25 minutes
6 W, 6 M,  (6-50 actors possible: 3-25 W, 3-25 M)
Set: Flexible. From a bare stage to an elaborate Greek temple.

Complete with little green army men, a beauty pageant, and warring narrators, this is The Iliad as you've never seen it before. Two narrators have a blast recreating Homer's quintessential epic myth at a rapid pace and in wildly varying styles, as it morphs seamlessly from a musical, a modern drama, and a bizarre one-man show. This side-splitting parody is both hysterical and historical -- the perfect opportunity to laugh while you learn! (A one-act version and a full-length version of this play are also available.)
