Eurydice, by Sarah Ruhl
2:30pm – 4:30pm- The Studio Theatre at The Weston Center for the Performing Arts
A TLU Dramatic Media Production
In EURYDICE, Sarah Ruhl reimagines the classic myth of Orpheus and Eurydice through the eyes of the heroine. Dying too young on her wedding day, Eurydice must journey to the underworld, where she reunites with her father and struggles to remember her lost love. With contemporary characters, ingenious plot twists, and breathtaking visual effects, the play is a fresh look at a timeless love story. “…Watching it, we enter a singular, surreal world, as lush and limpid as a dream—an anxiety dream of love and loss—where both author and audience swim in the magical, sometimes menacing, and always thrilling flow of the unconscious… Ruhl’s theatrical voice is reticent and daring, accurate and outlandish.” —The New Yorker
