EPIC: The Musical by Jorge Rivera-Herrans—a genre-bending, soul-stirring adaptation of The Odyssey that blends ancient myth with modern music, mythic battles with raw emotion, and fire beats with deep inner work.
We break down:
What makes EPIC so ridiculously compelling for neurodivergent brains
How ADHD makes us fall in love with character arcs, lyrics, and emotional symbolism on a cellular level
The healing metaphors in Odysseus' journey—grief, guilt, loyalty, memory, and reclaiming purpose after loss
How Jorge’s writing captures the internal battles of surviving trauma, trying to get “home” to yourself, and the struggle of being misunderstood by your own mind and world
EPIC isn’t just a musical—it’s a mirror, a mythic parallel, and for us, a place where neurodivergent hearts can feel seen, activated, and not alone.
Whether you’re deep in the fandom or just getting introduced, come scream-sing with us about found family, flawed heroes, and what it means to not give up—even when your mind feels like a war zone.
