Eurydice, is a contemporary retelling of the traditional Greek story about Eurydice and Orpheus, and is about the painful choice that comes with the passing of joys and pleasures: whether to remember in sadness, or to forget, and achieve a calm but emptier equilibrium." This story has some of the subliminal potency of music, the head-scratching surprise of a modernist poem and the cockeyed allure of a surrealist painting. It's pretty funny, too." - NY Times

      The term ‘it’s all Greek to me’ had to come from somewhere, right? Even with my ability to recognize such names as Zeus and Hades (thanks to Percy Jackson) a play with characters whose origins date back to 29 B.C.E. intimidates me to no end. The Grand Theatre has thankfully selected a script that makes for a stunning production. While the acting had glorious moments, it was the writing that truly conveyed the darkness of forgetting, fear, and hell alongside the light of love, music, and the power of the word.
