Orpheus

Theatre and Physical Theatre β€’ Folk
Australian Premiere
Dave is single, stood with his mates at the bar, and is turning 30 next week.
Eurydice is a mythical dryad - a tree nymph.

This is a tale of impossible, death defying love; a tale of this world and the underworld; a tale of soul music and late night karaoke. Told through spoken word and soaring live music, The Flanagan Collective weave a world full of dive bars and side streets and ancient gods.

International award winning company behind FABLE (β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… ClothesLine) and BABYLON (β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… GreatScott) return to Adelaide with a new, modern telling of Orpheus & The Underworld.

They perform our work locally, nationally and internationally. They aim to challenge traditional models of what theatre can be, how it is made and where it happens.
