On the day Eurydice is to marry her true love Orpheus, a misstep sends her to the surreal depths of the Underworld. There she has a surprising reunion and must decide whether to follow Orpheus back to the land of the living. This tenderhearted comedy/love story solidified Ms. Ruhl as one of the most important new voices in American theatre. “Rhapsodically beautiful – an inexpressibly moving theatrical fable about love, loss and the pleasures and pains of memory.” – The New York Times
