A Washington Area Community Theatre Premiere
When it comes to artistic challenges, this is a play most theatres can’t do.
But thanks to the “stadium seating” of the Industrial Strength Theater, ESP
is excited to stage this beautiful and imaginative piece for the first time
in the region.

| A modern adaptation of Ovid's thrilling mythological stories, all of them
with modern relevancy such as King Midas, Orpheus and Eurydice, Alcyone and
Ceyx, and Phaeton; and they are told with a strong element of choreography
and lyrical dialog. So, what is the challenge? Most of them are told in and
around the large pool of water on stage. Our audience is in for a very
special production of this Tony-nominated Best Play that they will never
forget. |
