Editor reviews

In this overview of Roman mythology young listeners are treated to the story of brothers Romulus and Remus and the founding of Rome, as well an outline of Virgil's Aneid, a heroic epic immensely popular in its day. Hosting this iMinds' case study, actor Todd MacDonald brims with curiosity and imagination as he conjures up satyrs and giants, and introduces children to important Roman deities, including Poseidon, Venus, and Athena. MacDonald places these myths in a historical and cultural context, as he examines how they were influenced by Greek religion and ultimately abandoned as a belief system following Emperor Constantine's conversion to Christianity. Sure to capture the intrigue of young audiences, the Aussie actor is emotive and even-paced throughout the proceedings.

Critic reviews

"I'm learning all sorts of stuff about stuff I didn't even know I didn't know. And it sticks. In a nutshell: wonderful." (Jonathon Margolis, Financial Times)
