Absurd Hero

April Alsup Productions • Professional company

60 minutes•Willow Studio
For Albert Camus, the Absurd Hero is embodied in the mythological character of Sisyphus, mayor of Corinth, sentenced by Zeus to the mundane task of pushing a boulder up a hill only to see it roll back down for eternity. In our present-day version of the Greek myth, Sisyphus (now Sid) must persuade the homeless Gods to cooperate with city hall if he wants to be mayor. Oh, how the tables have turned on Olympus in 2025.
