Synopsis "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’s Inferno and Nirvana’s lyrics, to explore the essence of faith and love.“adobe [theatre company] knows just how to retool old forms and artists … to produce new theater games. So its ORPHEUS AND EURYDICE begins with bad sex and ends with death and everlasting angst, with rock ‘n’ roll in the middle … Orpheus fronts and writes songs for his band In Your Thrace (That’s right, the Greek Orpheus was from Thrace) … Myths and references crisscross brazenly. The playwright and director Jeremy Dobrish (adobe’s artistic director) accomplishes all this with compact writing and versatile humor (sometimes he’s witty, sometimes he’s farcical, sometimes he’s deliberately corny) … It’s all quite winning. Young, smart, a trifle skittish about sustained emotion, but filled with comic pleasures.” —Margo Jefferson, The New York Times
