Abstract Details

2010, Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA), Ohio University, Theater.
This thesis examines the author's process of adapting the Grecco-Roman Orpheus myth into a theatrical production for a modern audience. Beginning with the establishment of the traditional Orphic narrative structures of Virgil and Ovid, the author moves on to elaborate on his own process of creating a deviating narrative form those traditions.
