The World Premiere of a New Adaptation by Phillip DePoy.
Beowulf is directed by Rosemary Newcott
Beowulf is sponsored by Inverness Productions
Beowulf is Dedicated in Memory of Chris Kayser, Beloved Alumnus of the Academy Theatre
Beowulf is the oldest written story in the English language, yet it’s never been more timely. Philip DePoy’s new version combines film, puppetry, song, and stage to yield a version of this classic tale that serves as a palimpsest for our times. When a monster threatens a community, just for singing, Beowulf must save the day by fighting the monster bare handed, and then must face the evil that comes after.
