The ODDyssey
- see all dates
ODDly, the epic airs its final chapter this week. The cast returns next week for a live chat.
Homer's epic poem The Odyssey is presented in short, family-friendly webisodes featuring wild costumes, music, masks, and dozens of characters.
The ODDyssey, the Getty Villa's first virtual theater presentation, recounts Homer’s 24 books in five episodes of about 15-20 minutes each.
Held captive by Calypso (a magical nymph) after a harrowing encounter with a giant Cyclops, Oddy (Odysseus) is finally allowed to leave Calypso's island—only to be confronted by witches, sirens, angry gods, and multi-snake-headed creatures on his quest to return home to his beloved family.
The actors perform from their respective dwellings against the backdrop of the recent stay-at-home orders, using what is at their immediate disposal to tell the story, in this whimsical retelling of Odysseus’s adventure for audiences of all ages.
Each episode premieres on Sundays at 3pm Pacific, (5pm Central, 6pm Eastern) on the Getty Museum YouTube Channel
Audiences can chat live with the Troubies via YouTube Premiere. On August 23, audiences are invited to a Zoom party with the cast.
