Beowulf: A Thousand Years of Baggage

Based on one of the most famous pieces of literature of all time, Beowulf: A Thousand Years of Baggage is a raucous rock ‘n’ roll re-telling of the blood-soaked Old English poem. With music by Dave Malloy (Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of 1812), the swaggering hero Beowulf defends the great hall of Heorot against the monster Grendel, Grendel’s mother, and a fire-breathing dragon…as a panel of academics overanalyzes his every move.
