Orpheus Descending

Eight actors begin with a black box space, then create a bold, new re-staging of Williams’ classic tale in real-time before—and among—the audience.

Inspired by the ancient Greek legend, Orpheus Descending is about a small town disrupted by an outsider – and what happens when that outsider taps into dangerous community undercurrents that eventually erupt in brutality and mayhem.

Developed by and features Intiman’s first Company-in-Residence, The Williams Project.
