Carson High School Theatre Arts production of 'Eurydice' runs Friday through Sunday
Carson High School Theatre Arts will host its upcoming production of "Eurydice," a modern adaptation of the classic Orpheus in the Underworld myth, with performances Friday through Sunday at the Carson City Community Center.
The New York Times describes the play as “rhapsodically beautiful. A weird and wonderful new play; an inexpressibly moving theatrical fable about love, loss and the pleasures and pains of memory.”
In "Eurydice," Sarah Ruhl reimagines the classic myth of Orpheus through the eyes of its heroine. Dying too young on her wedding day, Eurydice must journey to the underworld, where she is reunited 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.
Directed by Andie Wilkerson (formerly Andie Anderson), Theatre, Musical Theatre and Dance Director at Carson High School, Eurydice features the talents of over 30 of Carson High School’s finest talents working both onstage and off.
Leading the cast are juniors Angela Cirone as Eurydice and Ben Larkin as Orpheus, and senior Charlie Moser as Eurydice’s Father. This very special production also features an original score composed by senior Carlos Montejano.
Performances of "Eurydice" will run Friday and Saturday, Oct. 13-14 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Oct. 15 at 2 p.m. in the Bob Boldrick Theatre at the Carson City Community Center located at 351 E. William Street in Carson City.
Tickets are $10 General Admission, $5 Students and Seniors and will be available at the door. At this time, only cash or check are accepted. Contact awilkerson@carson.k12.nv.us for more information.
