Crown of Shadows: The Wake of Odysseus

The world premiere of Crown of Shadows, brought to you by The Round House Theatre in Bethesda, is nothing more than a fan fiction of Homer's Odyssey. Clearly it was inspired by the emotionally cliched genre of Stephenie Meyer more than by ancient Greece. Perhaps Telemachus and Calliope (the muse of epic poetry) would have taken each other to Prom if they hadn't been stabbed to death in the final scene.

Oh gods how I thus beseech you! How did you allow this atrocity to happen on stage? Why?!
