Eurydice

Huntington University's Merillat Centre for the Arts, 2303 College Avenue, Huntington, IN 46750

A luminous retelling of the ill-fated love story between Greek mythological characters, Eurydice, and Orpheus. Sarah Ruhl focuses her modern adaptation on the heroine. As Eurydice unexpectedly dies on her wedding day, she journeys to the underworld where she is reunited with her father, but struggles to remember her lost love. Imaginative, poetic and profound, audiences will be left to ponder the power of love and loss and the unmistakable pains and joys of memories reclaimed and forgotten. The New York Times calls the play “Rhapsodically beautiful…a moving theatrical fable.”
