About the show
The Goddess of Justice is BACK to restore order for mortals. Unfortunately, she keeps coughing up webs… and the curse won't break until she reveals her past injustices as Olympus' judge. A bold, modern reimagining about Athena and the woman she turned into a spider. Using only props, songs and sheep, Britt Anderson weaves a mythic story about friendship and the dismantling power of art. Pick of the Fringe Winner, 2026 Green Bay Fringe. 'The perfect balance of fantasy, clever humour and modern interjections' **** (TheatreWeekly.com). 'Full of fun surprises that carry a sharp sting' (Recommended, FringeReview.co.uk).
