Myths take us to a world of dreams and desires.
Where Love can be
your salvation
or your damnation.
Either way, you will be changed.
Elden Street Players is very excited to present the Washington
Area
Premiere of this beautiful and imaginative piece of storytelling!!

actors performing over 80 characters; more than a dozen stories in 90
minutes, lovers transforming into birds, trees, and mist; an enormous
sea battle; and did we mention the 1,000 gallon pool of water on stage??
Metamorphoses is a modern adaptation of Ovid’s thrilling Roman
mythological stories, filled with lyrical dialogue, comedy, tragedy, and
told through acting, singing, and movement!

and in the ESP Theatre for Young Audiences
A hilarious comedy which cleverly combines the tale of The Three
Little Pigs and Little Red Riding Hood with a very hungry wolf stuck
between them! Children and adults will delight in the whirlwind antics
of the three pigs, a French Canadian woodsman, and Cornelius B.B. Wolf,
who might actually get something to eat, if he doesn't keep blowing
things away. A real crowd pleaser for kids and adults alike!
Produced by Mary Ann Hall
Directed by Scott Olson

Wit by Margaret Edson
Winner of the 1999 Pulitzer Prize, Wit is intellectually
challenging and emotionally immediate. Vivian Bearing, Ph.D., a renowned
professor of English who has spent years studying and teaching the
brilliant and difficult metaphysical sonnets of John Donne, has been
diagnosed with terminal ovarian cancer. Her approach to the study of
Donne is aggressively probing, intensely rational. But during the course
of her illness and her stint as a prize patient in an experimental
chemotherapy program at a major teaching hospital, Vivian comes to
reassess her life and work with a profundity and humor that are
transformative both for her and the audience.
Produced by Janet Bordeaux
Directed by Gloria DuGan
