ABOUT THE PLAY
Sarah Ruhl is the 2003 recipient of the Whiting Award for Drama
In Eurydice, Sarah Ruhl reimagines the classic myth of Orpheus through the eyes of its heroine.

With contemporary characters, ingenious plot twists, and breathtaking visual effects, the play is a fresh look at a timeless love story.
