Discus

by Becca Schlossberg

Hyacinth is dead. Well, no, not yet; he's lost in the Nether Place. But what happened? Who killed him? Wait, did someone kill him? And where's Apollo? That's all Hyacinth can remember at that his life truly began the night he locked eyes with the great god Apollo... Discus boldly reimagines the often-overlooked queer love story of Apollo and a heartbreaking and candid play that challenges us with its powerfully relevant themes of class, power, justice, accountability, and - above all - change.

[Kristi Hovington · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a beautiful play about the love story of Apollo and Hyacinth, modernized. The man who sold it to me said it would destroy me, and while it didn’t quite do that, I was mesmerized whilst reading it. Would jump at the chance to see it performed.
