Scenes From: The Fall Play

For two spectacular nights in October, the KUA Theater Department presented Eurydice in Flickinger Auditorium. The play reimagined the Greek myth of Orpheus from the perspective of his wife, Eurydice. Dying too young on her wedding day, Eurydice journeys to the underworld where she reunites with her father and struggles to remember her lost love. A hauntingly beautiful and dreamlike piece, Eurydice is a poetic musing on love, grief, and the importance of memory.
