Metamorphoses

Mary Zimmerman’s mesmerizing play about the power of love to transform recently celebrated its 300th performance. This unique mix of dance, music, comedy, and tragedy breathes new life into the legend of King Midas and the tales of Cupid, Psyche, Aphrodite, and Orpheus. Based on the epic works of Ovid, Metamorphoses converts the Circle in the Square into a 27-foot-wide pool of water and beautifully channels the stories of gods and goddesses into a breathtaking evening.
