Eurydice
A Pure Theatre Production with
the New Music Collective
April 25 through May 25, 2008
$25
10 Storehouse Row

In a first collaboration with Pure Theatre the NMC is writing music for and playing characters in a new production of Sarah Ruhl's adaptation of the classic myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. It's a great, clever play and the production is proving to be an endless source of thought-provoking discussions.
For more information and to buy tickets please visit Pure Theatre's page. Also check out any other Pure Theatre shows. They are a strong force in modern theatre, and one of the only modern theatre groups in Charleston.
