Michaelmas Week 8
The eponymous Eurydice is tricked by a Nasty Interesting Man and separated from her lover Orpheus as she is sent down to the underworld. As she reunites with her dead father in the underworld, Orpheus repeatedly attempts to communicate with and rescue her, culminating in the familiar and inevitable tragic ending. The play follows themes of loss, forgetting, separation and memory, all in a surreal underworld which drips and creaks as if it is a pipe about to burst, bringing people together and pushing them apart.
