Description
The playbill for Taylor University's performance of Eurydice by Sarah Ruhl.
Performed February 20-22, 2026 and February 27-March 1, 2026 in the Mitchell Theatre at Taylor University.
Eurydice, written by Sarah Ruhl, retells teh familiar myth of Orpheus - but this time, the story unfolds from Eurydice's perspective. That shift matters. Instead of centering heroic rescue, the play centers interior experience: grief as it is felt, memory as it flickers, love as it is complicated by loyalty, doubt, and longing. By allowing Eurydice to be the narrative voice, the play asks us to inhabit loss from the inside rather than observe it from a distance. We are invited not to watch a myth unfold, but to feel what it costs.
