Beowulf

This is not the dull translation you were forced to read in high school.

Excellent adaptation of an epic, charmingly performed in an intimate setting. This version of Beowulf enchants while keeping the pace quick and the story clear. More than can be said for the original. ... full review

A stunning, minimalist adaptation of Beowulf. Thrilling and poetic and laugh-out-loud funny. Brilliantly performed. Couldn’t have asked for more.... full review
