LITTLE ILIAD
created and performed by Evan Webber & Frank Cox-O’Connell
EW&FCO, Toronto
“A profound and poignant synthesis of art and war.” Irish Theatre Magazine
“Stimulating… Cleverly written and delightfully played and the technical realization is superb.” National Post
In Little Iliad, two childhood friends, a writer and a soldier enroute to Afghanistan, reconnect on Skype over a little-known fragment from the epic Trojan War Cycle. The audience listens on headphones to an intimate, disarmingly simple play, where one performer is live and the other is present through technology.
Limited to just 34 seats per show with a pair of headphones for each audience member, this is contemporary performance at its most topical, personal, immediate and intimate.
