ORPHEUS AND EURYDICE

A rock retelling of the story of Orpheus and Eurydice through the eyes of Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love, combining elements from Dante&rsquo,s Inferno and Nirvana&rsquo,s lyrics, to explore the essence of faith and love. ,  ,&ldquo,adobe [theatre company] knows just how to retool old forms and artists &hellip, to produce new theater games. So its ORPHEUS AND EURYDICE begins with bad sex and ends with death and everlasting angst, with rock &lsquo,n&rsquo, roll in the middle &hellip, Orpheus fronts and writes songs for his band In Your Thrace (That&rsquo,s right, the Greek Orpheus was from Thrace)&hellip,  ,  ,Myths and references crisscross brazenly. The playwright and director Jeremy Dobrish (adobe&rsquo,s artistic director) accomplishes all this with compact writing and versatile humor (sometimes he&rsquo,s witty, sometimes he&rsquo,s farcical, sometimes he&rsquo,s deliberately corny)&hellip,  ,  ,It&rsquo,s all quite winning. Young, smart, a trifle skittish about sustained emotion, but filled with comic pleasures.&rdquo, Margo Jefferson, The New York Times ,_,
