About ORPHEUS AND EURYDICE
THE STORY THAT INSPIRED THE BROADWAY HIT, ‘HADESTOWN.’
In this classic myth of unwavering love that celebrates the transcendent power of music, Orpheus descends to the land of shadows to rescue his bride Eurydice. His music charms its gatekeepers, and the gods allow Eurydice to return—on the condition that Orpheus lead her back to the world of the living without gazing upon her face.
In this new production, Director Joachim Schamberger envisions the famous couple later in life as Eurydice descends into dementia—a heartbroken Orpheus uses love and the power of music to rescue her from darkness.
Gluck’s original 1762 score is conducted by Music Director Emmanuel Villaume, leading The Dallas Opera Orchestra and Chorus. Two exciting young singers lead the cast: countertenor Hugh Cutting, who made his U.S. debut as the steadfast lover Orpheus, and soprano Madison Leonard as the enigmatic Eurydice.
