Metamorphoses

  • The Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center, Kogod Theatre 8270 Alumni Drive College Park, MD, 20742 United States (map)

Performances: Nov 15, 17, 19-22

Ovid’s timeless poem Metamorphoses leaps to stunning life in Mary Zimmerman’s Tony-nominated adaptation. Set in and around a central onstage pool of water that provides the hub of each of Metamorphoses’ many vignettes, Zimmerman’s bold retelling juxtaposes antiquity and modernity in an exploration of the power of theater across centuries. UMD Assistant Professor KenYatta Rogers directs this production, celebrating the persistence of narrative in the face of inevitable change.
