A contemporary, quirky, and poetic retelling of Orpheus and Eurydice’s classic myth, but from the perspective of its heroine. Playwright Sarah Ruhl captures the struggles of love and grief. Ruhl plants new characters, twists of fate, and moments of choice for Eurydice to navigate. 2023 marks the 20th anniversary of this beloved piece.

Head Over Heels
by James Magruder, Sir Philip Sidney, and Jeff Whitty and directed by Mark Cosdon
Performance dates: April 4 – April 7, 2024
Head Over Heels is a joyously exuberant rock musical! When an oracle’s prophecy threatens its fortunes, Arcadia’s royal family must demonstrate that “love comes first!” This Elizabethan-styled farce, awash in sass and desire, features the music of the Go-Go’s!
