Her body is silent yet she is speaking to you all the time
Who is the real Penelope?
Demi-Goddess, Lover, Tour Guide.
Everybody wants to find her, especially her long lost son. Hidden within the ancient stories she tells to contemporary Athenian visitors, her elusive spirit chimes with his own struggles.

Merging music and mythology, and created with an international ensemble. The Guides is a vibrant story of chosen family, ambiguous histories and the hidden divine feminine.
