$10 advance, $15 doors ($5/10 students)

Joe Goodkin's Odyssey is a 30 minute original musical composition for solo acoustic guitar and voice. Joe's performance of 24 original songs inspired by Odysseus' exploits represents in a contemporary musical mode both the abridged plot and the performance circumstances of Homer's original oral composition of The Odyssey.

Joe's Odyssey is appropriate for audiences of all ages and levels of familiarity with the story. The running time of the event is one hour and includes a brief introductory lecture, the 30 minute musical performance, and a spirited audience Q&A.

Joe has performed his Odyssey over 200 times in 33 U.S. states and Canada, and has been honored with several ASCAP Composers awards.

Joe's Odyssey is a Paideia Institute performance and you can read an article Joe wrote about being a modern bard at the journal Eidolon.
