This acclaimed adaptation of Helios by Wright and Grainger transplants the Ancient Greek tale into the modern-day monotony of winding English country lanes and city life.
A story about the son of the god of the sun, Helios transplants the Ancient Greek tale into a modern-day myth wound round the winding roads of rural England – and into the everyday living of a towering city. It’s a story about life, the invisible monuments we build to it, and the little things that leave big marks.
From “masters of storytelling” (Fourthwall) Wright&Grainger, Helios is the award-winning follow up to the internationally-acclaimed Orpheus, Eurydice and The Gods The Gods The Gods. Join them in a little room with a tape player – and a delicate tale to tell.
“Quiet intimacy and boyhood wonder.”

“Powerful.”

“Very cleverly involves the audience in an hour in which past and present, the ancient and the contemporary, lightness and darkness mingle.”
