METAMORPHOSES
By Mary Zimmerman

Breathe. Conquer. Love. Consume.

Remember. Chase. Fuck.

Torture. Die.

Repeat.

Tales from Ovid are presented in all their glory - mischievous, beautiful, savage and timeless - in the Tony-award-winning adaptation that illuminates the power of storytelling. Actors transform into character after character. Stories flow from the divine to the horrific. All of our collective primal instincts are on display - and more relevant than we may have anticipated…

Join two of Sydney's most exciting independent theatre companies for a fresh and furious take on ancient mythology in contemporary performance.

'This isn’t your usual vanilla theatre...This is a work based upon movement, light, sound and boundless energy and imagination.' Stephen Carnell, Stage Whispers  | FULL REVIEW
