In the ancient rubbish heaps of the desert, two British Egyptologists sift for lost manuscripts. Their discoveries include petitions from the homeless, laundry lists and, at last, fragments of a lost satyr play by Sophocles. The play unleashes the spirits of the Greek gods Apollo and Hermes - along with a boisterous chorus of clog-dancing, highly irreverent satyrs.
