Riverland opens the 2012-2013 season with Eurydice Oct. 4
The Riverland Community College theatre 2012-2013 season opens Thursday with Eurydice. Pulitzer Prize finalist Sarah Ruhl reimagines the classic myth of Orpheus through the eyes of its heroine. Dying too young on her wedding day, Eurydice must journey to the underworld, where she reunites with her father and struggles to remember her lost love. With contemporary characters, ingenious plot twists, and breathtaking visual effects, Eurydice is a fresh look at a timeless love story. The play is suggested for ages 12 and over.
