Go See Metamorphoses

[lillibet]

Boston locals, if there's any way you can make it to the ART tomorrow or Saturday, go see the Harvard-Radcliffe Dramatic Club's production of Mary Zimmerman's adaptation of Ovid's Metamorphoses. This is a fine production of what might just be my favorite piece of theatre.

I want to go on and on about what a stunning piece of work this play is and how much I loved it when I first saw it in 1999 and the differences between that production and this one, but it is very late and Alice actually went to sleep two hours ago, so I've got to get to bed.

But trust me, if you haven't seen Metamorphoses get thee to the theatre!

Oh, my. This is such a marvelous piece indeed! We saw it here in our town a few years ago and it was just delightful.

Isn't it, though? I wish I could figure out a way to make a twenty-foot pool of water work at T@F.

I've just received her adaptation of Arabian Nights in the mail and am looking forward to reading that, in the hopes that perhaps it doesn't feature any major technical challenges. I would really love the opportunity to direct her work.
