"METAMORPHOSES, A PLAY "
The EMU Theater Department will be performing their fall production of Metamorphoses on November 6, 7, & 8 and November 13, 14, & 15. All performances will begin at 7:30pm in the Mainstage Theater in the University Commons.
Based on Ovid's tranformation myths, Metamorphoses is an inventive adaptation by Mary Zimmerman that mixes the ancient stories with contemporary language, humor, and thought. Much of the action centers around a large pool of water that evokes natural and emotional turbulence, and the ensemble cast of actors create the illusion that it is as deep as the sea. Characters melt into this pool and galleons are destroyed by storms. Timeless themes emerge, including the inevitability of change and the human ability to adapt to change.
