Directed by Michelle Bossy
Performed by Sarah Baskin
When Myrrha, a grad student in the classics, confronts her professor over the fifty sexual assaults in Ovid's Metamorphoses, their combustive exchange sparks a cascade of magical transformations. As literary as it is visceral, and as slyly funny as it is moving, this powerful one-woman play will stay with you for days to come.
"Very clever" The Sunset Review
"A poetically imagined but fast-paced journey" Three Weeks
"Mesmerising...a compelling execution of an intelligent script" Scottish Field
"Morally urgent and emotional...a bold conversation starter, unafraid to confront uncomfortable truths" The List
"Sarah Baskin is outstanding" The Theatre Times
