Running time: 70mins without an interval
An ‘undiscovered’ Aristophanes comedy – the story of three Greek nobodies caught up in a celestial bet between Zeus, Hera and Hercules.
The unwitting heroes - Stanzas (a terrible poet), Darius (the runt of the litter) and Hermaphrodite (born a girl) - travel to compete in the ancient Olympics and take on the heroes of the sporting world with epic results for mankind.
Gathering a clutch of 5 star reviews at Edinburgh Fringe, this ridiculously funny show uses clown, original music, song and shadow puppetry to render their
audience helpless with laughter.
"Definitely triple gold"
