Director Hatem Adell has taken playwright Pete Riesenberg’s reinvention of Jason and the Argonauts into the 21st century in an intriguing drama perfectly set in the Cambridge dungeon that was the original Cantab Lounge (now Club Bohemia.) The atmosphere, much like the old coffee houses of the 60s, adds to the vibe as the seven actors – who double as the rock band in the play – prove to be well cast for this kaleidoscope of clashing cultures.  READ FULL STORY HERE:

A comic adaptation of the Argonautica and Euripides' Medea, this bloody tale is told as a one-hit wonder. Myth, mayhem and murder spill out onto the stage as a punk rock band leaves destruction in its wake during a five-month tour. This inaugural production from the Office of War Information features performances from Boston favorites Liz Adams as Medea, Daniel Boudreau as Peleus, Kim H. Carrell* as Heracles, Rick Chason as Nestor, Tim Hoover as Orpheus, R. Benton Orzalli as Meleager and Emma Walker as Atalanta. It's all sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll channeled through a classic Greek myth. * Additional fees apply.
