Space Odyssey Opera
David Bradley As The Narrator
featuring
Matt Sharp As Captain Odysseus
The war is won, and on a distant planet somewhere in the
solar system, Captain Odysseus sets course for home.
Will he make it? Will his crew want to stop off for burgers on
Planet Siren? Will they get eaten by the space beast Scyllar?
More to the point, will his wife in mission control keep his tea
warm for twenty years? All these questions and more are answered in a brand new intergalacticopera made by Orchestra of the Swan and Talking Birds Theatre Company in collaboration with Welcombe Hills, Thomas Jolyffe and
Wilmcote Schools. Featuring hundreds of singers, thousands of notes,and millions of stars, Space Odyssey is an epic journey from one side of the galaxy to the other, at light speed, and with theuniverse’s best sound system.
The performance lasts one hour and is suitable for all ages. |
