Description:
-- ORPHEUS EXTENDS!! NOW RUNNING THRU FEB. 26 --

Obsession. Love. Life. Art. Death.

Cocteau’s surreal beat-era masterpiece returns to the stage in this dream-like production. Orpheus, the world’s greatest poet, struggles to transcend the limitations of his humanity. He follows a dark and mysterious Princess through the the other world to save his love. But which one - the wife who is his life, or the Princess who is his Death? Death falls in love, time is transcended and the veil between the worlds is torn asunder.
