Description Specialising in big outdoor spectacles, Sydney based Theatre Kantanka collaborates with French designer Henri Gallot Lavallee to bring another story of Odysseus. Of all the Greek hero's amazing adventures, the one that captures the imagination most is battling the might Cyclops, the legendary one-eyed monster. In this outdoor production at the Old Adelaide Gaol, kids and adults alike will squeal with pleasure to see ordinary mortals in combat with the huge eye staring out at them. Fiery, physical and funny, this is imaginative entertainment of the most creative kind. Suitable for children ten years and over.
