Metamorphoses - Theater Production

Date released: 03/12/04

by Mary Zimmerman
Directed by Michael Costello

The Texas State University Department of Theatre and Dance performs the Tony Award-winning Metamorphoses by Mary Zimmerman April 7-9 and 14-17 at the outdoor Glade Theatre on the Texas State campus.

Nominated last year for a Tony award in the Best Play and Best Director category, this play won the award for Best Director, who happened also to be the writer. This is a beautiful, touching, and funny adaptation of Ovid’s tales and blends mythic stories of love, loss, and transformation with a modern sensibility. Visually stunning, imaginative, thrilling, and magical in its theatrical telling of these ancient tales which are as moving and as profound as ever. Performed in and around a pool of water, this production will be produced at Texas State, under the night sky, surrounded by trees, in our beautiful outdoor Glade Theatre. Metamorphoses will be a special theatrical event that is not to be missed.

Location: Glade Theatre (Moore Street on Texas State Campus, across from Blanco Hall and the University Performing Arts Center) $10 & $5 for students / Box Office 8:00 pm.
