Metamorphoses presented by Bethany Lutheran College

Based on Ovid’s transformation myths, Metamorphoses mixes the ancient stories with contemporary language, humor, and thought. This is all enacted in and around a large pool of water, the elemental giver of life and vehicle for change. The themes of love, the inevitability of change, and the human ability to adapt are timeless, as is demonstrated by the sometimes eerie closeness of a vignette to the original lines from Ovid, which still manage to resonate in modern times.

I did this play for our intro to theatre class my sophomore year of high school and I'm so glad I found this video it brings back memories amd lines I'd thought I'd forgotten

But for real though. Came here for help understanding Ovid's work, but I couldn't help but be entertained by this cast and I'm not even a theatre buff! Bravo!

This is amazing

[@douglaskillingtree3050]

This is a good production but why are they pronouncing Eurydice like that?
