This was the premier production of the stage adaption of David Almond’s novel. The story is based on the Orpheus and Eurodice myth. A group of local young people became the greek chorus through a projected compilation of scenes filmed over the course of the summer. This was a scenographically ambitious project including stone balancing, a stage made of cardboard boxes and twenty minutes of pitch black darkness.
