The play has been produced in collaboration with CHANS Hospice Care Program and Sarah Ruhl, and with the support of the Maine Humanities Council.
Eurydice is a modern retelling of the classic Orpheus myth re-imagined through the eyes of its tragic heroine.
Dying too young on her wedding day, Eurydice must journey to the underworld, where she reunites with her father and struggles to remember her lost love. With contemporary characters, ingenious plot twists and breathtaking visual effects, the play is a fresh look at a timeless love story, a news release said.
Directed by Christopher Price, “Eurydice” will run tonight through Nov. 11, with performances on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., and Sundays at 2 p.m.
All tickets are pay-what-you-want (suggested $18), available anytime at www.theaterproject.com or by calling 729-8584.
