About the Program
Visible Fictions of ScotlandExperience all the spills, thrills, and monsters from the classic Greek myth as brought to life by… plastic action figures?! Two actors from Scotland's acclaimed theater company Visible Fictions roll their big wooden cart onto the stage and suddenly it transforms into a replica of that legendary ship, the Argo. Climbing aboard is our valiant hero Jason and his misfit crew the Argonauts, who must sail the perilous seas to find the Golden Fleece and unite their kingdom. Can they sail between the Clashing Rocks without getting crushed? How will they distract the Sleepless Dragon and grab that shiny winged ram? The Glasgow Herald and The Evening News (Edinburgh) gave this inventive adaptation of the epic journey "Four stars!" Age 9 and up.
