About this Event
The modern and the mythic collide in a stunning work of art like you’ve never seen before. Conjured from an onstage pool of water comes a magical world where gods and mortals alike share stories of love, loss, and transformation. The classic stories of Aphrodite, Midas, Orpheus, Apollo, and more are brought to life with gorgeous imagery and whimsical poignance. From legendary writer/director Mary Zimmerman, this must-see spectacle reaches back in time to remind us of the joys, follies, and heartbreaks of being human.
“Entrancing...an evening of almost magical changes, wrought through the unique imagery of theatre” -Chicago Tribune
