Eurydice by Sarah Ruhl is a surrealist retelling of the tragic Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. The play follows Eurydice, and how she reconciles with the ongoing grief from her fathers death and the gap it has left in her life. It is fundamentally a play about love, exploring the complexities of Eurydice’s romance with Orpheus and separation from her Father. While surreal and dreamlike, Eurydice is an emotionally honest play that explores themes of grief, love, family, memory and identity within the framework of a classic tale.
