La Jolla Playhouse has announced the cast and creative team for its upcoming co-production with Berkeley Repertory Theatre of Denis O’Hare and Lisa Peterson’s adaptation of An Iliad, running August 11-September 9. Lisa Peterson will direct.

Based on a translation by Robert Fagles, this new adaptation of Homer’s epic is a riveting account of humanity’s unshakeable attraction to violence, destruction, and chaos.

(costume design), Scott Zielinski (lighting design), and Mark Bennett (sound design and original music).
