The
Odd(us)sey by HWS Rembiko project, is for me one of their weaker productions this year.
Based
loosely on Homers Odyssey it tells of Oz's adventures whilst
rescuing his parents by taking their passports to the Airport,
then trying to find his way home to his girlfriend Penny and
little brother Tommy. The Greek gods Athena and Poseidon in turn
either help or hinder him with his tasks.
The
cast work hard on the show and some of the scenes are very
imaginative. The costumes are
interesting.
The
cast are Quinn Beswick as Oz; Kate Friedman-Siegel as Penny;Jake
Goren as Tommy; Esther Zukerman as mother; Jeff Iloulian as the
Axe; Sam Farmer as Drake; Reed Ryan as ; Max Freedman as ; Max
Freedman as ; Lisa Bass as ; Norah Tillmans as ; Romi Barta as
Athena; Katie Truer as ;Leon
Moskatel as .
The
band are Ben Bram, Derek Staahl, Shea Sullivan, Sarah Park, Lauren
Wood and Leon Moskatel.
The
show has promise but on the night I saw it seemed to lack the HWS
Rembiko sparkle.
