'The Odyssey' BRIDLINGTON OLD TOWN episode one: 'The Gathering Storm'

1 ECHOES

Enter into a world of ancient Gods and epic battles inspired by Homer’s classic works. A modern reinvention of an ageless tale, set across the expanse of the beautiful Yorkshire Coast. The first episode - ‘The Gathering Storm’ tells of how the Trojan wars began, and introduces many of the major characters in our tale.

The audio trail features the voices of storytellers and performers from across the region, and original works by composers from the Yorkshire Coast. They are available throughout the year and are a great way to experience the drama of the Yorkshire Coast in an outdoor setting whatever the weather.

Alongside the story, the trail introduces you to the old town itself, and some of the places you may wish to explore after listening.
