A twisting maze. A terrifying monster. And one hero determined to change his city's fate.

In this epic myth from ancient Greece, we follow Prince Theseus of Athens as he travels to the island of Crete to face the dreaded Minotaur — a half-man, half-bull trapped deep in a dark labyrinth. With the help of Ariadne, a ball of thread, and his own cleverness and courage, Theseus takes on a challenge no one has ever survived... and fights to bring freedom back to his people.

Join Mili and Abby as they explore one of the most legendary adventures of all time — and stick around for the Lightning Round quiz at the end!

✨ A classic tale of bravery, brains, and the thread that guides us out of the dark.
