With An Iliad, the Cleveland Play House takes on Homer's classic story, and the theatrical rendition of the epic narrative promises "vivid storytelling" and live cello as two women transform a bare stage into a "raging battlefield where gods, heroes, and empires clash in a quest for vengeance and glory." Tonight's show takes place at 7:30 p.m. at the Outcalt Theatre, where performances continue through Feb. 9. Tickets start at $25. (Niesel)
