ABOUT THE SHOW

When a vengeful sorceress places a curse on Hercules and threatens to plunge humanity into eternal darkness, the only thing standing in her way is Calliope, the demigod’s least-likely-to-be-a-hero daughter. Armed with a magical sword, an ancient map and a wisecracking sidekick—Narcissus—Calliope must summon her courage, race against time and battle an island's worth of ferocious monsters if she wants to rescue her father and save the world in this sassy girl power comedy of Olympian proportions!

ABOUT POP UP POCKET PRODUCTIONS

interACT is the theatre in residence at The Baird Cultural Arts Center in South Orange, NJ. In 2019, the entire Baird building is closing for extensive renovations and will remain closed for a few years until the project is complete. During this time combined with the Covid-19 challenges, we are offering online and remote readings/productions so that we may connect with and grant a brief escape to our audiences.

This program is made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a Partner Agency of the National Endowment for the Arts and administered by the Essex County Division of Cultural and Historic Affairs.
