METAMORPHOSES
"Metamorphoses" is based on Ovid’s classic narrative poem, which tells the transformation myths of the ancient Greeks and Romans. Using contemporary language and familiar characters, such as King Midas and his golden touch and Orpheus and Eurydice in the underworld, Zimmerman’s “Metamorphoses” explores the meaning of being alive through moments of change and the expression of universal emotions. The focal point of the set for “Metamorphoses” is a large pool in which much of the play’s action takes place.
Director: Sean Harris
Auditions: Initial Local auditions: Monday Feb 27, Tues Feb 28 at Playhouse On Park
