Tempus Fugit: Troy & Us

A door bell rings and the radio crackles on, igniting the visions and memories of a woman drawn to an ancient past, that speaks to her present and holds the keys to her future. Tempus Fugit: Troy & Us, focuses on the experience of a modern military wife, Bea, as she faces the realities and unrealities of living with her soldier husband, Alec. Inspired by Andromache and her doomed prince Hector, from Homer’s Illiad, as well as interviews with military personnel and partners, it fuses text, movement and mask to create a multi-layered work that explores love, grief, trauma and war.
