Join internationally renowned Wright & Grainger in a little room with a tape player – and a delicate tale to tell
A lad lives halfway up a historic hill. A teenager is on a road trip to the city in a stolen car. A boy is driving a chariot, pulling the sun across the sky.
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” (Fourth Wall) Wright & Grainger, Helios is the award-winning follow up to the internationally-acclaimed Orpheus, Eurydice and The Gods The Gods The Gods.
