Publisher's Synopsis
In Eurydice, Sarah Ruhl reimagines the classic myth of Orpheus through the eyes of its heroine. Dying too young on her wedding day, Eurydice journeys to the underworld, where she reunites with her beloved father and struggles to recover lost memories of her husband and the world she left behind. A stunning play that breathes fresh life into one of our oldest myths while exploring the potency of language, the ways memory shapes the self, and the transformative power of love and grief.
