See Jo Kelen perform a one-person play she wrote, retelling Achilles and Patroclus’ story through love, war, Achilles’ grief and the violence that follows. It ends with Achilles returning Hector’s body; stay for a Q&A after the 45-minute performance.
This event features a critically acclaimed one-person play, *Achilles: Death of the Gods*, written and performed by Jo Kelen. The performance reimagines the story of Achilles and Patroclus, tracing their love, the brutality of war, and Achilles’ overwhelming grief after Patroclus is killed.
The play then follows the violence that follows, before ending with Achilles’ return of Hector’s body and his own death.
The event takes place at Senate House, University of London, with doors opening at 6.45pm. The performance runs from 7pm to 7.45pm, followed by a Q&A until 8pm. Further information is available from the organiser, and no booking is necessary.
