A timeless tale as you’ve never seen it before. Odysseus follows the mythical journey of a determined man—husband, father, son—struggling to make his way home. In a piece at once epic and intimate, complemented with musical soundscapes from percussionist Rob Aptaker, this new solo work from Touchstone co-founder Bill George enchants, instructs, and inspires.
