Eurydice

ACT, 2008

Playwright: Sarah Ruhl

Director: Allison Narver

Costumes: Melanie Taylor Burgess

Lights: Michael Wellborn

Sound: Chris Walker

“...it's as much meditation as play, with Allison Narver making the most of her cast and set designer Matthew Smucker's eerie end-of-summer dreamscape. Smucker's dilapidated swimming pool (complete with a prodigious diving board looming above) nods both to Carl Jung's notions of water-as-unconscious and to the bygone innocence of those '50s romances popularized by Sandra Dee and Troy Donahue. In fact, a still photo from any of Eurydice's early scenes would have made a fine cover for a pulp novel from the era.”  -  Seattle Weekly
