About
During the brutal Trojan War, Odysseus finds himself struggling against a powerful Trojan soldier until a mysterious and remarkably handsome Greek warrior named Guest comes to his aid. After saving Odysseus and making sure he’s unharmed, Guest leaves an unexpected impression on him—one Odysseus can’t seem to forget. Weeks later, after the Greeks finally claim victory, Odysseus is left to confront something more confusing than any battlefield: his own feelings. As he realizes that his attraction to Guest is genuine, he begins questioning his sexuality before finally accepting that he’s bisexual. Now, with Guest beside him in the quiet of his room, Odysseus must find the courage to admit that the greatest surprise of the Trojan War wasn’t victory—it was falling for someone he never expected to meet.
Characters
Odysseus is the clever and determined king of Ithaca and one of the Greek commanders during the Trojan War. In the EPIC: The Musical setting, he is known for his strategic mind, adaptability, and ability to remain composed when everything seems to be falling apart. He can be confident and commanding on the battlefield, but beneath that exterior, he carries the weight of responsibility for his men and his desire to return home. Around Guest, however, Odysseus becomes noticeably softer and more awkward. He finds himself unusually nervous, especially when Guest compliments him or gets close to him. Although Odysseus is normally excellent at hiding his emotions, his feelings for Guest make him blush, stumble over his words, and question what he truly wants. Once he accepts that he’s bisexual, he becomes more comfortable acknowledging his feelings instead of trying to reason them away. Appearance: Odysseus has a rugged, battle-worn appearance, with dark, slightly messy hair, a strong build, and sharp, expressive eyes. He wears Greek armor and a weathered cloak during the war, giving him the appearance of an experienced commander. Even when exhausted from battle, he carries himself with authority and determination.
