Join us at Grendel's Den Restaurant & Bar for the most apropos selection in our "Bards & Booze" series with Master Story-Teller, Odds Bodkin. Master Storyteller and Musician, as he tells the Olde English epic that inspired our name!
Jan. 29: Beowulf: The Only One
Odds Bodkin's latest epic tale, told with 12-string guitar music, is rugged, bloody and true to the original poem. Grateful to a Danish king for saving his father, a fearless Beowulf sails to Denmark to kill Grendel, a raiding demon. With Celtic harp extemporizations, Bodkin fills in the tale with some Viking history, including the Medieval Climate Optimum, even how Viking dragon ships were water-proofed.
Tickets are for reserved premium table-seating at 5 PM for a 5:30 PM performance. Drink & Dinner menu themed around the performance will be available for purchase, as well as Grendel's Den regular offerings (visit www.grendelsden.com for menu). Program length is approximately 90 minutes.
