Description Homer’s Iliad is the HBO series of the classics – a sweeping, bloody panorama of war cut with intimate scenes that reveal the emotional lives and frailties of the famed ancient heroes and villains. Gifted actor William Zappa brings Homer’s epic to life in a thrilling modern marathon of storytelling performed by four actors with live percussion by Michael Askill and an oud score. Presented in three parts over three nights, or over one day.
