Event information

by Sarah Ruhl
The myth of Orpheus and Eurydice is retold from the feminine perspective in Sarah Ruhl’s witty and moving re-imagining. Shifting between the worlds of the living and
the dead the play depicts Eurydice’s descent into the jaws of death with a touch of
surreal poetry.
Eurydice’s lessons in love, loss and the pleasures and pains of memory sit
at the centre of this tender-hearted comedy.

“Cygnet’s young, talented actors were excellent, bringing terrific energy and insight to the script. Ensemble work at a high level.” Remote Goat review Terrorism

“the play exerts a strong pull, moving inexorably towards a place where there is no memory, no music, no words. Just silence and stones.” The Guardian
