Metamorphoses

Over two thousand years ago the Roman poet Ovid chronicled more than 250 myths in his masterpiece Metamorphoses. Our spring play will explore three of those stories, leading audiences on a trio of journeys spanning multiple performance spaces throughout our building. Come and bear witness to the love, loss, triumph, defiance, and transformation.

PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING YOUR TICKETS

Arriving for the show:

The house will open 30 minutes prior to show time.

Because of the way this show is staged, we will not be able to immediately seat late arrivals. The audience will be split into 3 groups, which will travel through the building to see the three different myths. Audience members who arrive after the performance has begun will be required to wait until the next myth transition to be added into their group.

Traveling through our space:

Audience members will be required to transition through different production locations within our building, some of which will require the use of stairs. Unfortunately, at this time there is no elevator access to assist in these transitions. A digital ticket option will be available for this production after the show closes for those needing an alternative viewing experience.

Due to the audience movement in our Spring production, we recommend audience members limit the amount of items they bring to the theater as they will be required to carry them through viewing locations, without disruption to the performance. Public coat racks will be provided for audience use.

Content Warning:

We are recommending this show for ages nine and up. The actors wear full face masks, and get close to the audience. Small children may find this frightening. In addition, the show discusses themes common in Greek mythology, such as death and war, and also deals with themes of gender identity. There is no foul language, overt sexuality, or graphic violence, but parents bringing young children should be prepared for questions about heavy subject matter.

What happens if an audience member comes to the theatre but doesn’t have proof of vaccination or proof of a negative COVID test?

Audience members who are not able to show proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test at the door will not be permitted to enter the Drama Studio. They can exchange their tickets for a future performance when they are able to show proof of vaccination or a negative test or access to the digital recording of the performance when available.

Does my Drama Studio Student need proof of vaccine or negative test to attend the show?

No, current Drama Studio Students are covered under our class onsite policy agreement and therefore do not need to show proof of vaccination or negative Covid test to attend a performance.
