Cyclops: A Satyr Play
“The Cyclops”, Euripides’ only surviving Satyr Play, is incomplete, half-translatable, and reads like someone trying to remember The Odyssey after downing a whole bottle of ouzo. So that’s exactly what this Satyr is going to do.
A re-telling of a Greek Classic as an interactive, queer, techno-pop fever dream of the night before - karaoke, drunk texts, bar fights and all. It asks the important questions like “What if a goat and a man had a child?” and “How did a goat and a man have a child?”
Every day, people choose between feeding the monster or saving the stranger - but this Satyr refuses to pick. He’s going to make you do it.
Supported by Talk Is Free Theatre (TIFT) - winning BEST THEATRE in ADLFringe 2020 for “Every Brilliant Thing" - Panic Theatre comes from Canada with this musical, interactive, Bootleg Bacchanalia.
Reviews & Fringe Feed Reacts
This is peak Fringe. Wild. Smart. Profane. Thoughtful. Euripides would probably have approved. After a few drinks. - James Murphy, The Scoop
A man with goat legs, a karaoke machine, and the audience – eventually unanimously – deciding his ultimate fate. - Scott, A Thousand Words
