THE SALT PLAYS,
PART ONE:
IN THE WOUND
written and
directed by JON TRACY
inspired by The Iliad by
Homer
"And as I look down at my hands, I see
the future of creation.
And that, Odysseus, is why you will follow
me into war."
From the team that brought you The Farm comes a
unique beat on the most famous war story ever told. Using
every classic text on the subject, this original work breaks
down the insanity of war into an explosive musical soundscape
that will lay egos bare, implode cities, and call into question
everything you've ever been forced to believe is true.
Production Producers: Linda Schmidt & Peter Skarpelos;
Joseph Mallon & Sue Trowbridge
In the Wound is generously supported by grants
