450 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge

In black odyssey, Ulysses Lincoln, a Gulf War veteran lost at sea and presumed dead, fights to find his way back home to his wife and son. The meddlesome Gods -- Great Grand Daddy Deus and Great Grand Paw Sidin -- have other plans in mind as they battle for control of Ulysses' fate. Combining Greek mythology, African-American oral history and music, this visionary new take on Homer's classic tale can be seen at the Central Square Theater in Cambridge.
