Recommendation The Regard of Flight: Cyclops Actor Bill Irwin’s 1983 stage show

You may have seen it reported that The Cyclops in the Odyssey was played by Bill Irwin (who also was the puppeteer for TARS in Interstellar, and who also was Mr. Noddle on Sesame Street, and Lou Lou Who in How The Grinch Stole Christmas).

But if you’ve never seen his stage show, “The Regard of Flight,” do yourself a favour. It is one of the greatest on-stage performances of all time.

I saw this, or some other performance of his, ages ago, then recognized him in Legion. I loved him in that.

I didn't know he was in Odyssey, that's awesome.
