EURYDICE
By Sarah Ruhl
Director Bijan Sheibani
Eurydice is in love with Orpheus. Her dead father has advice for her wedding but his letters can’t get through to the land of the living. At last one does. With her father’s words in her hand, she crashes down a flight of stairs and wakes in the underworld, her memory wiped. How will she ever get home?
Alice in Wonderland meets Greek myth in this playful and heart-breaking American take on a timeless tale of loss, grief and redemption by the celebrated US playwright Sarah Ruhl. Eurydice is created by the team behind the multi-award winning hit The Brothers Size, seen at the Traverse in 2008.

“The most moving exploration of the theme of loss that the American theater has produced.”
The New York Times
“Trio of tight, deliberate and highly choreographed performances combine with a strong and equally calculated script to create a top theatrical treat… an exciting and passionate piece”
The Scotsman on The Brothers Size
