Abstract:
The Labors of Heracles provides viewers with a thrilling account of some of the impossible tasks this muscle-bound demigod completed to atone for his earthly mistakes.
Theseus & the Minotaur charts the adventures of this heroic character -- from his rise out of obscurity all the way to the throne of Athens. Viewers join Theseus as he makes his heroic decision to take on King Minos, the ruler of Crete, and the deadly Minotaur.
In The Gods of Olympus, students will observe the creation of the universe from chaos, learn how Zeus became the king of the gods and examine life on Mt. Olympus, the home to Zeus and his family of Olympian gods.
Perseus, whose tale is that of a young man who struggles to fulfill his own fate with the help of the powerful goddess, Athena. Perseus & Medusa chronicles this hero's quest to pursue the head of a hideous Gorgon, whose terrifying stare could turn men to stone.
Jason & the Golden Fleece is the tale of an epic voyage filled with dangers and pitfalls that serve as a test of Jason's bravery, intelligence and physical strength. Join Jason on his ship as he embarks on an impossible quest to retrieve the magical skin of a golden ram.
