I see this ambitious play seems to be getting a varied reception, as I thought it might. It was very compelling to me, despite being fairly long and maybe a bit overstuffed, and I enjoyed seeing it. Could be an interesting double-bill with Tracy Letts' "The Minutes" as plays exploring foundational mythological figures and stories and their reverberations with the present.
