Theatre in the Parks – The Ghost of Achilles

A musical adaptation to be enjoyed by all the family!

Odysseus has come home—Penelope beside him, the suitors dead—but the war still burns within.

Journeying to his father’s house, he sheds his disguises and stands as a son, not a hero. Yet the ghost of Achilles lingers, whispering of pride, rage, and glory. Between memory and remorse, Odysseus faces his truest battle: to return in spirit, not just in body. Inspired by the Greek classics of the Trojan War, this is a haunting story of homecoming and healing.

The performance will take place in the Anglo Saxon Village. Please note “Theatre in the Parks” tickets do not include a visit to the Anglo Saxon Museum.

Please bring chairs and blankets with you, pack a picnic and dress for the weather, it is the British summer after all!
