Ensemble Theatre continues its 40th Anniversary Season! ::Dedicated to Ensemble Founder Lucia Colombi ::This season will focus on 'Making Her Story'! All shows are written by women, directed by women, and starring women. THE PENELOPIADBy Margaret Atwood (Writer of The Handmaid's Tale)Directed by Celeste CosentinoOctober 18- November 10, 2019 :: MainStageTheatre :: Cleveland Premiere!Fridays & Saturdays @8pm :: Sundays @2pmHomer's Odyssey tells the story of Odysseus's ten year journey home to Ithaca after the ten year Trojan War, fraught with many perils, mythic creatures, and divine beings. By the time he makes it back to Ithaca, he finds his home overrun with one hundred and eight suitors all vying for his faithful and cunning wife Penelope's hand in marriage. Odysseus, with help from his son Telemachus and his patron goddess Athena, kills all of the suitors and the twelve palace maids found to be disloyal. Told by her and her twelve maids from beyond the grave, Penelope’s story varies little from the classic tale told by Homer, except in pointing out that there are other explanations for the heroic escapades." 'The Penelopiad' is a delicious slice of Canadian theatre at its best, from its dark beginning to its startlingly poignant end." -The London Free PressOur entire 2019|2020 Season will take place in the heart of Coventry Village on the Coventry P.E.A.C.E.
