SUNY New Paltz Main Stage Production of Metamorphoses

Playwright Mary Zimmermans award-winning Metamorphoses is more than a revisiting of Ovids ancient text it is a contemporary re-imagining of his timeless tales.

Metamorphoses, recipient of the 2002 Tony Award, Obie Award and Drama Desk
Award, will be performed Nov. 12 22, in McKenna Theatre at the State University of New York at New Paltz. The play is directed by Nancy Saklad, assistant professor of performance at New Paltz.

Ovids Metamorphoses is brought to light by Zimmerman in an adaptation that juxtaposes the ancient and the contemporary, the comic with the sorrowful within the context of transformation. It is deeply moving and humorous, weaving familiar Greek mythology into a stunning exploration of love, loss, memory, imagination and the power to adapt and endure.
