Location: The Bluma Appel Theatre, 27 Front St. E.

In November the Canadian Stage features a Compagnie Marie Chouinard production of fantastical storytelling and ballet. The familiar Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice hits the stage in a powerful yet comical dance as choreographed by Quebecois sensation Marie Chouinard following an internationally acclaimed tour. Orpheus is a musician, poet and prophet who must travel into the underworld to save his wife, Eurydice, who has died at the hand of a viper.
