This musical was such a clever and unique hybrid of story-telling, animation, and modern music! Add in one TREMENDOUS leading lady, a few note-worthy ensemble performances, some fun interpretative dancing, appropriate, period-esque costuming, gorgeous lighting and inventive mask-work and you have a truly inventive Fringe show!! Bravo!!...

The music of Patti Smith was a highlight of this show, with the actors all well accomplished in belting with attitude. Loved the Greek chorus masks! Great choreography and a fun way to learn a bit about Greek mythology....
