Worum es geht

A dramatic adventure for tweens and listeners of all ages, Live from Mount Olympus weaves timeless Greek myths with the artistry of foremost contemporary theater-makers. Hermes, god of storytellers, travelers, and thieves (Tony Award-winner André De Shields) is our host. Season Seven: Apollo & Artemis: Are you ready to jam out with the gods in our first-ever musical season? Apollo, shining god of music, releases his hit single, “Dragon Slayer.” With the swagger of a divine rock star, Apollo shares his triumphs, but when Apollo acts cruelly towards his twin sister Artemis, he must seek forgiveness – or risk the destruction of all of Olympus. Season Six: Theseus and Ariadne: King Minos of Crete demands fourteen young Athenians to feed to the monstrous Minotaur, so Prince Theseus and a lively group of teenagers set sail. Minos expects his daughter Ariadne to watch as the Athenian tributes meet their gruesome deaths. But Eros, mischievous god of love, takes aim, changing everyone's fate. Season Five: Pandora: Zeus, king of the gods, commands Hephaestus to sculpt a beautiful woman out of clay, and orders each god to grant her a gift. While you may think you know Pandora's story, you’ve never heard it told this way before. Season Four: Prometheus: You’d think being able to see the future would be a gift – but Prometheus’s visions are never completely clear. When he glimpses a coming war that threatens the whole world, Prometheus must forge an unlikely alliance with the young Olympian Zeus. Season Three: Atalanta: A tiny newborn, abandoned in the forest, is adopted by a mama bear who raises her as her own. Guided by Artemis and Athena, the bear girl grows up wise and strong, a skilled archer ready for adventure. When she meets the greatest heroes in all Greece - who are none too happy to hunt alongside a girl - Atalanta surprises them all. Season Two: Demeter and Persephone: Persephone is eager to strike out on her own, but is suddenly pulled into the underworld and must find her power in the darkness. Her mother Demeter fights to bring her back to the sunlight, and nothing can grow. Can the Olympians stop fighting before humanity starves? Season One: Perseus: Young Perseus makes a rash promise to save his mother from the clutches of an evil king, and must strike out on a dangerous quest full of terrifying monsters, powerful gods, and a brave girl who will change our hero’s life forever.
