The Odyssey workshop part 1 / Ithaca, NY
The Stringpullers studio is hosting a development workshop session for the next installment of Joseph Medeiros’ ongoing Odyssey, supported by The Cherry theater in Ithaca, from August 24-30 and September 21-27, 2026. The workshop will culminate in a public showing, TBA.
