At once tender and savage, LOIZOS is the story of a youthful, blind beggar abducted to Crete together with Prince Theseus and twelve other young Athenians, male and female, to be sacrificed to the feared Bull Fod in Knossos. They survive not only this ordeal but the harrowing journey back to Athens, encountering physical danger, rivalry, friendship, love and above all a biding team spirit under the leadership of the charismatic Theseus. Enmeshed in the tale of Loizos, the legend of Theseus and Ariadne is re-told, in which there are no monsters, only human monsters.
