BEOWULF is the world premier of an action-adventure story in two acts. There are battles with three different monsters and this new adaptation is written primarily in verse. That means one actor might be speaking in iambic pentameter as they swing a sword while other players are using their puppetry skills to help bring the ogres and dragons to life. Actors are encouraged to read act one of the play to get an idea of what the production will be like.
