Once again, Available Light approaches a strange and difficult novel to adapt it into a strange and challenging stage-play. This time around the book is A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce, which celebrates its Centennial in 2016.
This radical adaptation is titled Dedalus after the main character of Joyce’s novel. In our version, Stephen Dedalus will be played by a multiple actors of various types as the play twists through the dreams and memories of a blossoming artistic soul.
