The Odyssey: Episode 5
Public Acts builds sustained partnerships with theatres and community organisations across the UK who share our vision of theatre as a force for change.
The Odyssey was the five-episode story of Odysseus’ epic journey, created by and performed at our partner organisations across the UK. The journey of Odysseus, the most resilient of heroes, told a universal story of endurance, loss, healing and of finding a way forwards together. We are so proud of our collaboration with communities from across the country who told this story of hope as one united national company
