An Iliad

June 19, 2025 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm CDT

ChooseChicago ILIAD

A timely and gripping retelling of Homer’s epic poem, An Iliad returns to Court’s stage, illuminating the human cost of conflict with breathtaking urgency. Timothy Edward Kane reprises his role as The Poet – the sole character in this one-person saga – who recounts a tale of war, hubris, and destruction that spirals across millennia and crashes into our present day. Experience the raw power of Kane’s performance in Court Theatre’s intimate Abelson Auditorium, and confront the necessity of the classics head-on.

Jason Huysman understudies the role of The Poet and will be featured in evening performances on Sunday, June 8; Sunday, June 15; and Sunday, June 22; all other performances will feature Timothy Edward Kane.
