Main Titles (Instrumental) - Michael Kamen & the London Metropolitan Orchestra. I would use this song when Odysseus is walking up to his old palace because I love the way it sounds and it conveys a serious tone, I think it would work well to help set the mood for the scene. 

Time- Hans Zimmer. I would use the beginning of this song for the play when Odysseus picks up the bow because the beginning starts with a sound that is somewhat like a heartbeat. When this song comes on the whole room would go quiet and show how concentrated and serious Odysseus is 

The Light of Rome- Dragon Blade OST. At the end of the play once Odysseus becomes king again and reveals his identity, I would have the people who were loyal to him and didn't flee sing this song together to praise the return of their king. 

I would use Robert De Niro to play Odysseus because he’s a great actor and has the physical appearance I wanted to give Odysseus in this play, which is someone who can be nice and compassionate, but at the same time someone who you would not want to double cross. As well as being an older man because Odysseus was gone for so long.

I chose Paige Turco to play Penelope because she is a beautiful actress, but she is older, so it would fit better in the story since Odysseus had been gone for so long. Another reason I picked her is because she has dark hair and in Italy and Greece many people have darker hair, so it would fit with that as well. 

To play Marcus Aurelius I would use Gabriel Macht, he is a younger actor who is very attractive and seems like he would be full of confidence like Marcus in the story. 

To play Telemachus I chose Isaac Hempstead Wright, he is a younger actor who also has darker hair like the region would suggest. Also, he is a great actor and from one of my favorite shows.
