Waiting for Ulysses by Théâtre de l'Ange Fou

In the epic poem of Homer, Ulysses, Kind of Ithaca, after his complicity in the fall of Troy, began a long journey home, sailing for some twenty years and encountering many fears and demons in his wanderings . . . It has been written his wife Penelope waited and waited despite the many attempts of others to make her forget. Waiting for Ulysses is an imaginary portrait of the life and dreams of Penelope longing for her beloved. Ithaca is no more the mythical island kingdom, but a strange early 20th century mental institution looked over by a mysterious Doktor. Perpetually weaving and unweaving her past and present, Penelope waits, while trying to escape the plans of the Suitor/Doctors surrounding her. Waiting for Ulysses is a modern tale of faith and hope.
